Hi dongyo kang ,

Can you please try the below code snippet.

Jira incoming sync

if(firstSync){
issue.projectKey = “XYZ”
issue.typeName = nodeHelper.getIssueType(replica.type?.name, issue.projectKey)?.name ?: “Task”
issue.summary = replica.summary

//include other fields that maybe mandatory for creating the Jira issue.
store(issue)
}

//write the below line outside the first sync block

httpClient.post(“/rest/api/3/issue/${issue.key}/remotelink”, “”"
{
“globalId”: “${replica.key}”,
“object”: {
“url”: “${issueUrl}”,
“title”: “${replica.key}”
}
}
}“”")

//here you can paste the other mappings

issue.summary = replica.summary
issue.description = replica.description
issue.comments = commentHelper.mergeComments(issue, replica)
issue.attachments = attachmentHelper.mergeAttachments(issue, replica)
issue.labels = replica.labels

No changes are required on the GitHub side.

Do let me know how this goes and if you have any questions!.

Thanks,

Dhiren
