Create issue using ScriptRunner Jobs with current month in Summary

[Kristin Lyons]

Is it possible to create an issue using ScriptRunner's Jobs that sets a specific set of text as the summary along with the current month that the script runs?

Example:

"Set Release for ((September))"

Hi @Kristin Lyons

For your requirement, I suggest using the Escalation Service.

Below is a sample working code for your reference:-

import java.time.LocalDate

def currentdate = LocalDate.now()

def currentMonth = currentdate.month

def existingSummary = issue.summary

issue.update { 
 setSummary("${existingSummary} ${currentMonth.toString()}")
}

Please note that the sample working code above is not 100% exact to your environment. Hence, you will need to make the required modifications.

If you observe in the example code above, I have used a simplified approach via ScriptRunner's HAPI to update the issue instead of using the Issue Manager. 

Below is a screenshot of the Escalated Service configuration:-

I am also including a couple of test screenshots to display the Issue's summary before and after the Escalation Service has been triggered:-

1. Before the Escalation Service is triggered

2. After the Escalation Service has triggered

I hope this helps to solve your question. :-)

Thank you and Kind regards,

Ram

Yes, to get the current month you can use something like

import java.time.LocalDateTime

def now = LocalDateTime.now()

def month = now.getMonth().toString()
