Error during script "Could not add component watchers as a notification recipient: 'null' "

[Coco _El mejor_]

I want to design a script to create another issue in the project with key "TR" when someone create an issue in the project "TEST". It´s important to create the issue via REST API, in the future i want to use a similar code to create issues in another products different to Jira. The script Listener that I made is executed when the event "Issue Created" occurs. Like this:

import groovy.json.StreamingJsonBuilder

def issueID = issue.getKey()
def issueTypeID = issue.getIssueType()
def issueType = issue.issueTypeObject.name

def authString = "myUser:myPass".getBytes().encodeBase64().toString()

def body_req = [
    "fields": [
        "project" : [ "key" : "TR" ],
        "summary" : "${issue.summary}" ,
        "description" : "${issue.description}",
        "issuetype" : [ "id" : "${issueTypeID}" ],
        "reporter" : [ "name" : "myUser"]
     ]
]

def baseURL = "MyjiraDomain/rest/api/2/issue/"

URL url

url = new URL(baseURL)

URLConnection connection = url.openConnection()
connection.requestMethod = "POST"
connection.setRequestProperty( "Authorization", "Basic ${authString}" )
connection.doOutput = true
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json;charset=UTF-8")
connection.outputStream.withWriter("UTF-8") { new StreamingJsonBuilder(it, body_req) }
connection.connect()

 The error information is very lazy:

The following log information was produced by this execution. Use statements like:log.info("...") to record logging information.
2019-07-12 16:08:44,132 ERROR [runner.AbstractScriptListener]: *************************************************************************************

 but i found more information in the atlassian-jira.log file:

2019-07-12 16:25:31,757 http-nio-8080-exec-47 ERROR myUser 985x146641x1 jzhf78 172.16.1.1 /secure/QuickCreateIssue.jspa [c.r.j.p.i.s.jira.notificationfilter.ObjectUserWatcher] Could not add component watchers as a notification recipient: 'null'

It seems to be an error when the event occurs.

Hi,

are you sure that the errors are related to each other?

The error logged in atlassian-jira.log seems to be thrown by the addon Insight from Riada (c.r.j.p.i com.riadalabs.jira.plugins.insight).

Exactly,the Insight error was not related with the main problem. I don´t remember exactly how I fixed it.  I create the JSON object manually, something like this:

 def body_req = """{
  "fields": {
    "project" : { "key" : "TR" },
    "issuetype" : { "name" : "${-> issueType}" },
    "summary" : "${-> summary}",
    "description" : "${-> description}"
  }
}"""

 This work for me, but I want to change it to my previus version. I need to map xml fields to a new JSON body. Using the string make hard for me to add new fields. 

Do you know if this works?

def body_req = [
    "fields": [
        "project" : [ "key" : "TR" ],
        "summary" : "${issue.summary}" ,
        "description" : "${issue.description}",
        "issuetype" : [ "id" : "${issueTypeID}" ],
        "reporter" : [ "name" : "myUser"]
     ]
]

cheers,

Agustín.-
