Display multiple issue links

Use Case

Originally asked by Berry Kersten on 09 October 2020 (original question)

Hi,

Currently I’m syncing an issue link by the following scripts

Outgoing

replica.customKeys.issueLinks = issue.issueLinks.collect{ baseUrl + im.getIssueObject(it.otherIssueId as Long).key}

Incoming

issue.customFields."ServiceDesk ID".value = replica.customKeys.issueLinks.join(",")

This works like a charm (in case of 1 issue link), however I’m not sure how to change this for the use case where I have multiple and different issue links.

Now the result on the remote site is like this:

Custom field:

“https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-1,https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-2”

I would to have something like this

Custom field:

“https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-1 (is caused by)”, https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-2 (relates to)

Ideas anyone? Thanks!

Hi Berry, could you try:

Outgoing:

replica.customKeys.issueLinks = issue.issueLinks
.collect{
 baseUrl + im.getIssueObject(it.otherIssueId as Long).key + "("+it.linkName+")"
}

The incoming is good as it is. Maybe you can leave a space between comas:

issue.customFields."ServiceDesk ID".value = replica.customKeys.issueLinks.join(", ")

Thanks a lot. This works and is exactly what I needed!

Hi Juan Grases one more additional question.

Currently the link is displayed as:

[https://support.test.uniface.info/browse/UFC\-25669(is](Log in - Uniface Service Desk(is “Follow link”) caused by)

When opening that link it’s also displayed as

Is there a trick/way to exclude the “(is” in the URL? Because in some browsers this results in not finding the issue when clicking on the link.

Current rules:

outgoing

replica.customKeys.issueLinks = issue.issueLinks
.collect{
baseUrl + im.getIssueObject(it.otherIssueId as Long).key + "("+it.linkName+")"
}

incoming

issue.customFields."ServiceDesk ID".value = replica.customKeys.issueLinks.join(", ")

Fixed it! There was a space missing…

baseUrl + im.getIssueObject(it.otherIssueId as Long).key + " ("+it.linkName+")"
