Remove issue links of clones for linked issue type story

[srinivas kattla]

Hello,

I'm planning to remove the linked issues of type clones for the linked issue type story and linked issues is from any projects .I was able to remove the issue links for issuelink type cloners but not able to make for the linked issues linked from other projects with linked issue type story.

Here is my code .But my code removes all links even condition is added .I'm looking some thing to check the linked issue status before remove. suggestion please

port com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLink
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLinkManager
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

ApplicationUser loggedInUser = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser
IssueLinkManager issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()
issueLinkManager.getInwardLinks(issue.getId()).each {issueLink ->
if (issueLink.getIssueLinkType().getName().equals("System Test Execution") && issue.issueType.name == 'Story'){
issueLinkManager.removeIssueLink(issueLink, loggedInUser)
}
}

Hi srinivas kattla,

Maybe this script could be useful for you, you must configure the jql sentence to treat those issues you want to change,  in this code I have eliminated the "cloners" link in all issues for the project "YOURPROJECT": 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
import com.atlassian.jira.bc.issue.search.SearchService
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

String jqlSearch = ("project = YOURPROJECT");
SearchService searchService = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(SearchService.class)
ApplicationUser user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()
IssueManager issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

List<Issue> issues = null

SearchService.ParseResult parseResult = searchService.parseQuery(user, jqlSearch)
def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()

def aux
issues.each {issue->
issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.getId())?.each() { link ->
//aux = link.getIssueLinkType().getName()
if (link.getIssueLinkType().getName().equals("Cloners")){
//aux = link.getDestinationObject()
issueLinkManager.removeIssueLink(link, user);
}
}
}

Please, be careful and running the above code with a small group of issues first or in a test instance.

Why doesn't Jira allow bulk edit of issue link type or issue link so that we can delete the link using the bulk edit?  That way we wouldn't have to write our own code to do this.
