ConfiForm -Component/s error

[Prabhu Prabhakar]

Hi All,

I'm new to ConfiForms.

I created a ConfiForms Form were the results are to be used to create a Jira issue using the IFTTT integration rules.

I'm getting error on System field "Component/s" and its a required field in that particular project.

Could someone help me how to describe JSON for that particular field?

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ · Accepted solution]

Field names are case sensitive!

Components != components

You are also missing a comma after the "TestComponent1"}], <----- comma is missing

[Prabhu Prabhakar]

@Alex Medved _ConfiForms_  Thanks!

I edited the comma and adjusted the Components,

Still I'm getting the same error.

Could you please help me to resolve it?

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

You could not be getting the same error if you have changed the name and fixed the JSON mapping.

Also, please check if you actually can set the components on Jira issue when you create the issue in Jira via UI (of type "Task" in INF project)

Do you see "components" field there (in JIra Create Issue form)?

[Prabhu Prabhakar]

Yes I can see,

Please check the screen shot and components is system field with multi selected option and it's a required field for the "Task" issue type to the particular project.

How does the complete (jira issue JSON) mapping looks like?

[Prabhu Prabhakar]

Sorry!! I didn't get you.

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

On Confluence/ConfiForms side you have a JSON mapping (in IFTTT macro body)

how does it look like now?

[Prabhu Prabhakar]

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

Sorry, but I was asking about the macro body, no macro properties...

Something what you have on your initial screenshot, but current

Currently I'm trying with different JSON syntex, 
But I didn't  get the result, not sure how to set.

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

But setting components in Jira is done differently!

You should really consult the documentation for Jira API - there is nothing to do with ConfiForms here... 

"components" : [{"name" : "Network [entry.tname]"}]

 (and you had it almost right initially, but then moved to something else - really dont understand why)

Also, in your mapping you have a },} in the end.. WHY do you have a ","? Jira expects a valid JSON to be posted

Now I'm getting this error,

Thanks,

Prabakaran

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

OK, and what do you ask?

I believe the error message is self explaining - you dont have a component by name "Network" registered... and therefore it is not valid as an input

[Prabhu Prabhakar]

Hi @Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ 

If I use this "components": [{"name":"Applications"}], It's working with out error and Jira ticket is getting created with the component as "Applications" only, but I should allow the users to select their choice. 

How I can get those options?

Could you please help me with the code?

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

Simple search over the community reveals good answers to this question.. For example this one https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Can-t-set-priority-when-creating-an-issue-REST-API/qaq-p/1190923

@Prabhu Prabhakar ,What was done finally to fix this component/s issue to call from jira as I am also facing the same issue while trying to call jira from confiforms.

Can you please share the working code here so I also implement the same.

Bad practice but if you still want to do it the documentation is your freind.
