.queryString("fields", "customfield") does not work in Scriptrunner from Jira Cloud

[Antoine _Klee Group_]

Hello,

I want to implement a scripted field similar to the one shown in the example code available on Adaptavist's website.

The thing is that this code is not actually working.

After investigation, it seems that calling the rest api with .queryString("fields", ) is not able to return an array with a customfield value. (it works well with all native fields).

See inputs and outputs

if (issue.fields.issuetype.name == "Epic") {
def fields = get('/rest/api/2/field')
.asObject(List)
.body as List<Map>

def ChiffrageTRATotal = 0

// Get all issues below the the Epic Issue
def allChildIssues = get("/rest/agile/1.0/epic/${issue.key}/issue")
.queryString("jql", "parentEpic =${issue.key}")
.queryString('fields', 'priority')
.asObject(Map)
.body
.issues as List<Map>

return allChildIssues
}

Returns the field 

[{
 "expand": "operations,versionedRepresentations,editmeta,changelog,renderedFields",
 "fields": {
    "priority": {
    "iconUrl": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/images/icons/priorities/low.svg",
    "id": "4",
    "name": "P3",
    "self": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/priority/4"
    }
  },
  "id": "16615",
  "key": "SEL-1669",
  "self": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/rest/agile/1.0/issue/16615"
}, {
  "expand": "operations,versionedRepresentations,editmeta,changelog,renderedFields",
  "fields": {
    "priority": {
    "iconUrl": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/images/icons/priorities/blocker.svg",
    "id": "2",
    "name": "P1",
    "self": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/priority/2"
    }
  },
  "id": "16833",
  "key": "SEL-1712",
  "self": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/rest/agile/1.0/issue/16833"
}
]

But

if (issue.fields.issuetype.name == "Epic") {
def fields = get('/rest/api/2/field')
.asObject(List)
.body as List<Map>

def ChiffrageTRATotal = 0

// Get all issues below the the Epic Issue
def allChildIssues = get("/rest/agile/1.0/epic/${issue.key}/issue")
.queryString("jql", "parentEpic =${issue.key}")
.queryString('fields', 'customfield_xxxx')
.asObject(Map)
.body
.issues as List<Map>

return allChildIssues
}

With customfield_xxxx being a valid non-empty custom field on the child issues of my epic.

Returns:

[{
  "expand": "operations,versionedRepresentations,editmeta,changelog,renderedFields",
  "id": "16615",
  "key": "SEL-1669",
  "self": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/rest/agile/1.0/issue/16615"
}, {
  "expand": "operations,versionedRepresentations,editmeta,changelog,renderedFields",
  "id": "16833",
  "key": "SEL-1712",
  "self": "https://<mysite>.atlassian.net/rest/agile/1.0/issue/16833"
}
]

With no mention to the field array nor customfield_xxxx.

How to fix that?

Thanks.

I am not sure, why they use this: 

/rest/agile/1.0/epic/${issue.key}/issue

Tried to find it in documentation with no luck.

I would suggest using simple JQL query searcher instead:

def searchReq = get('/rest/api/3/search')
.queryString('jql', parentEpic =${issue.key})
.queryString('fields', 'customfield_xxxx')
.asObject(Map)

return searchReq.body.issues

Thanks for your solution Damian.

As a workaround, the fields returned can be filtered within the URL just as shown here.

So for my example that would be 

def allChildIssues = get("/rest/agile/1.0/epic/${issue.key}/issue?fields=customfield_10231,customfield_10232")

That is less clean but works.
