how to get the key of a linked issue in the email body when you use "Send custom email" script post-function

[mel vega]

Hi,

I want to use a "send custom email" post-function with script runner. In the body of my email, I would like to get the issue key of eventual linked issue.

Any ideas please ?

Thanks

I used the following code in the "Email template" section. It loops through the Linked Issues and builds out a list of linked issues (Please excuse the code as I don't claim to be a developer by any means :)).

I hope this helps.  ...Cheers!

 <b>Linked Issues:</b> <br>
 
 <ul>
 <% 
 
 def outwardlinks = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager().getOutwardLinks(issue.getId())
 def inwardlinks = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager().getInwardLinks(issue.getId())
 def oCounter=0
 def iCounter=0
 
 
 // Check for Outward Links...
 if (outwardlinks)
 
 for (id in outwardlinks) {
 def linkedissueKey = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject(outwardlinks[oCounter].destinationId).key
 def linkedissueSummary = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject(outwardlinks[oCounter].destinationId).summary
 def linkedissueStatus = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject(outwardlinks[oCounter].destinationId).status.name
 
 out << "<li><a href='https://jira.domain.com/browse/"+linkedissueKey+"'>"+linkedissueKey+"</a> "
 out << "("+linkedissueStatus+"):"
 out << linkedissueSummary+"</li><br>"
 
 oCounter ++ 
 }


 // Check for Inward Links...
 if (inwardlinks)
 
 for (id in inwardlinks) {
 def linkedissueKey = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject(inwardlinks[iCounter].sourceId).key
 def linkedissueSummary = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject(inwardlinks[iCounter].sourceId).summary
 def linkedissueStatus = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject(inwardlinks[iCounter].sourceId).status.name
 
 out << "<li><a href='https://jira.domain.com/browse/"+linkedissueKey+"'>"+linkedissueKey+"</a> "
 out << "("+linkedissueStatus+"):"
 out << linkedissueSummary+"</li><br>"
 
 
 iCounter ++ 
 }
 
 %>
 
 </ul>

What does "eventual linked issue" actually mean? This can be quite complex.

[Vasiliy Zverev]

You can get all linked issues like this

ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager().getOutwardLinks(issue.getId())

Hi both, @Jamie Echlin [Adaptavist] @Vasiliy Zverev

thanks for your answer. Do not pay attention to the "eventual" liked issues. sorry it was confusing and does not matter.

here is my email and what I tried to show the linked issue reference thanks to Vasiliy's comment: (send custom email post-function script). But it returned into a script error. Any ideas? thanks for your help

Can you remove the "issue.getCustomFieldValue", not sure why you have that.
