How to use the JIRA cli to automate release?

[Connor Conway]

Hello there,

Is it possible to use the JIRA CLI to automate a release? I couldn't find any documentation on the release part but hopefully I'm just looking in the wrong place.

I'm hoping for something like:

1. Get all tickets in the "Selected for development" column in a Kanban board with a specific component.
2, Release obtained tickets and tag a version
3. Create release notes from JIRA description content
3. Move all tickets to "Done"

We have a DevOps pipeline that this would be done as part of.

Here are the Docs I was currently using:
https://docs.jiracli.com/#config

Thank you,
Connor

Hi @Connor Conway ,

As said earlier, we have created a support request in our portal https://bobswift.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/SUPPORT-8437 for further discussion.

The below Jira command will help you update the fixversions and transition the issue of a set of issues.

---

--action runFromIssueList --jql "project =TEST AND component = COMP1 AND status in (Open)" --common "--action transitionIssue --issue @issue@ --transition 11 --fixVersions "1.0""

---

Here the transition "11" is the ID of the status you would like to move the issue to.

Please try the above command and let us know if you have to face any issues.

Thanks,
Sravya

That doc is for Server. Some things you could consider/assess…

• use Automation (manual trigger)
• consider a devops automation addon from the Marketplace
