You could try something like this:
Azure sending side:
I have seen that the child issue has a field that has the id of the parent of the value, you can get any field of azure you see on the REST API json, but also we map the 'System.Parent' field to workItem.parentId
replica.parentId = workItem.parentId
It might be the value you are looking to sync its stored in a different field, just use the right field name instead of parentId
Jira receiving side:
Imagine the Epic was already synced, now you are receiving the sync of the child issue, you can do something like:
def remoteParentId = replica.parentId
if(remoteParentId){
issue.customFields."Epic Link".value = syncHelper.getLocalIssueKeyFromRemoteId(remoteParentId, "issue")
}
I have not tried this yet so let me know how it goes.
Jira sending side:
We send the epic as the parentId, if this is a subtask, we will send the parent issue:
//Outgoing Jira Server replica.parentId = issue.customFields."Epic Link"?.value?.id ?: issue.parentId
Incoming Azure side:
//Incoming Azure
def remoteParentId = replica.parentId
if(remoteParentId){
issue.parentId = syncHelper.getLocalIssueKeyFromRemoteId(remoteParentId, "issue")?.id
}
This should work.
It's actually Azure that's the receiving side.
I'm using the Rest API JSON to find all the fields I need, however there doesn't appear to be such a field which shows the parent/child/link. In Azure, they're under Related Work and are classed as Links, but still there's nothing obvious in the JSON which shows these - I've checked the Epic and the PBI (child) JSON.
Hi All,
I have tried this solution but getting following error
Could someone help?
Hey,
I've read this part of the Jira documentation, but I'm unsure whether this will work for Azure DevOps. Can you advise please?
Cheers,
Howard
