ScriptRunner create issue and link it

[Antonio_Caeiro]

I'm using a script available on BitBucket.

I need to add to this script the following:

I have project A with Workflow A, and an issue A

Running issue A, at certain point of WF A, i need to create a new project (B) with diferent WF (B)

The new project B, will have by default an Epic (with the same issue.summary of issue A).

I have already automated the creation of project B (based on a template project with no issues).

Allong this automation, i need to create the project B, and an epic B linked to Issue A

and thats it. no more links from that point on.

Can anyone help.

Tks

//Based on this example https://gist.github.com/jamieechlin/8240692

/*
  There is a problem with this script in scriptrunner versions around 5.5 onwards as the CopyProject class was changed.
  It clones the project but does not clone the issues
  
  I will update when I have found the solution

Hi Antonio

You are currently using that script to copy all issues from the source project.

(CopyProject.FIELD_COPY_ISSUES)          : true,

For Point 1:

• I do not really understand what you mean here. Can you explain this further? It sounds like you are asking how to create a new issue that is not cloned from the source project, but I do not understand why you want to script this.

For Point 2:

• Are you saying you want to link every issue you clone to the target project back to the original projects source issue?

Regards

Matthew

Hi Mattew,

bit messy my description. i try to simplify.

I have project A with Workflow A, and an issue A

Running issue A, at certain point of WF A, i need to create a new project (B) with diferent WF (B)

The new project B, will have by default an Epic (with the same issue.summary of issue A).

I have already automated the creation of project B (based on a template project with no issues).

Allong this automation, i need to create the project B, and an epic B linked to Issue A

and thats it. no more links from that point on.

hope this is clear than the previous description.

cheers

Antonio
