This case is described in ExalateEventListener.groovy
It will require an external script to be installed on the server (described here), and then add to your outgoing sync following code
ExalateEventListener.hangListener(connection,{
String localIssueKey,
String remoteIssueKey,
localIssue,
remoteIssue ->
localIssue.customFields."Remote Key".value = remoteIssueKey
})

I created ExalateEventListener.groovy (by copying the data from ExalateEventListener.groovy) under $JIRA_HOME/scripts… then I added below code to the outgoing sync…
ExalateEventListener.hangListener(connection,{
String localIssueKey,
String remoteIssueKey,
localIssue,
remoteIssue ->
localIssue.customFields.“Published External URL”.value = remoteIssueKey
})
I am seeing this Error…

This is to be expected when Exalate cannot access the external script - either because of a path or a permission problem.
Can you check either?

I double checked the path and its correct… permission wise the script has read permission… what permission do I need to set ?

Let’s review during the workshop. I guess it is a small thingy.

We found it today. In case of a data center version of the underlying tracker - it needs to be copied to a folder under the shared-home

This is working but not quite exactly…
ABC-23 is synced to EXT-234
ABC-23 will have the “Published URL” as EXT-234
EXT-234 is synced to EXTP-567
EXT-234 now will have the “Published URL” as EXTP-567
But what we want is this…
ABC-23’s “Published URL” to have EXTP-567

Do you have any recomendation on how we achive this?

Do you have the ‘Published URL’ in the outgoing sync of the connection between ABC and EXT?
When exalate adapts the value of that custom field, a sync will be triggered between EXT and ABC. You can then configure the incoming sync of the ABC-EXT connection to update a custom field on the ABC issue.
Would that help?
Samip K Banker commented on 10 September 2019
user-50445 :
Yes, for the Outgoing Sync Connection between ABC and EXT we have this…
ExalateEventListener.hangListener(connection,{
String localIssueKey,
String remoteIssueKey,
localIssue,
remoteIssue ->
localIssue.customFields."Published External URL".value = remoteIssueKey
})
We don’t have anything in the incomming Sync of ABC-EXT… what do I need to put in ABC-EXT Incomming Sync?
Francis Martens (Exalate) commented on 10 September 2019
in the incoming sync - something like
issue.customFields."Published External URL".value = replica.customFields."Published External URL".value
Make sure that the customField is in the replica by adding in the outgoing sync
replica.customFields."Published External URL" issue.customFields."Published External URL"
