Hi,

I try to set a default epic when I synch two issue between Jira Service Management and Jira Software.

I find this documentation on your site:

https://docs.idalko.com/exalate/display/ED/How+to+set+a+default+epic+on+the+destination+side+in+Jira+on-premise

When I insert the script and try to synch with the default epic, I got this error: No such property: issues for class: com.atlassian.jira.issue.search.SearchResults

Script:

/**
 Usage:

 Add the snippet below to the end of your "Incoming sync ... (create processor / change processor)":

DefaultEpic.setEpic(issue, "Service")

 * */
class DefaultEpic {
    static getEpic(String epicName) {
        def sserv = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getComponent(com.atlassian.jira.bc.issue.search.SearchService.class)
        def nserv = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(com.exalate.api.node.INodeService.class)

        def proxyAppUser = nserv.proxyUser
        def parseQuery = { com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser u, String qStr ->
            try

{                 // Jira 7 way                 return sserv.parseQuery(u, qStr)             }

catch (MissingMethodException ignore)

{                 // Jira 6 way                 return sserv.parseQuery(u.getDirectoryUser(), qStr)             }


        }
        def searchOverrideSecurity = { com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser u, finalQuery ->
            try

{                 // Jira 7 way                 return sserv.searchOverrideSecurity(u, finalQuery, com.atlassian.jira.web.bean.PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter())             }

        }
        def search = { String jql ->
            //get board query
            def queryRes = parseQuery(proxyAppUser, jql)
            if (!queryRes.valid) {
                throw new com.exalate.api.exception.IssueTrackerException("Failed to parse JQL `$jql`: `${queryRes.errors.errorMessages}`. Please review the script.".toString())
            }
            def query = queryRes.query

            // find issues on board
            def sRes = searchOverrideSecurity(proxyAppUser, query)
            def issues = sRes.issues => ERROR HERE
            def issuekeys = issues.collect

{ [                     "id" : it.id,                     "key": it.key,             ] as Map<String, Object>; }


            issuekeys
        }

        if (epicIssueKey == null)

{             return null         }


        im.getIssueObject(epicIssueKey.id as Long)
    }

    static setEpic(com.exalate.basic.domain.hubobject.v1.BasicHubIssue issue, String epicName)

There have been a change since Jira 8.5.1.

In your script you have to change the line as written in italic and bold.

class DefaultEpic {
static getEpic(String epicName) {
//def sserv = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getComponent(com.atlassian.jira.bc.issue.search.SearchService.class)
def sserv = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getComponent(com.atlassian.jira.bc.issue.search.SearchService.class)
def nserv = com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(com.exalate.api.node.INodeService.class)

    def proxyAppUser \= nserv.proxyUser  
    def parseQuery \= { com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser u, String qStr \-\>  
        try

{ // Jira 7 way return sserv.parseQuery(u, qStr) }

catch (MissingMethodException ignore)

{ // Jira 6 way return sserv.parseQuery(u.getDirectoryUser(), qStr) }

    }  
    def searchOverrideSecurity \= { com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser u, finalQuery \-\>  
        try

{ // Jira 8 way return sserv.searchOverrideSecurity(u, finalQuery, com.atlassian.jira.web.bean.PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter()) }

catch (MissingMethodException ignore)

{ // Jira 6 way: // SearchResults search(User var1, Query var2, PagerFilter var3) throws SearchException; //noinspection GroovyAssignabilityCheck return sserv.search(u.getDirectoryUser(), finalQuery, com.atlassian.jira.web.bean.PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter()) }

    }  
    def search \= { String jql \-\>  
        //get board query  
        def queryRes \= parseQuery(proxyAppUser, jql)  
        if (!queryRes.valid) {  
            throw new com.exalate.api.exception.IssueTrackerException("Failed to parse JQL \`$jql\`: \`${queryRes.errors.errorMessages}\`. Please review the script.".toString())  
        }  
        def query \= queryRes.query

        // find issues on board  
        def sRes \= searchOverrideSecurity(proxyAppUser, query)  
       ***def issues \= sRes.issues \=\> ERROR***

def issues = sRes.results => SOLUTION
def issuekeys = issues.collect

{ [ “id” : it.id, “key”: it.key, ] as Map<String, Object>; }

        issuekeys  
    }

    def im \= com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.issueManager  
    def cfm \= com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager  
    def cf \= cfm  
            .getCustomFieldObjects()//.getCustomFieldObjectsByName("Epic Name")  
            .find

{ cf -> cf.customFieldType.key == “com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:gh-epic-label” }

    def epicIssueKey \= search("\\"${(cf.clauseNames.jqlFieldNames as List\<String\>).find()}\\" \= \\"${epicName}\\"".toString()).find()  
    if (epicIssueKey \=\= null)

{ return null }

    im.getIssueObject([epicIssueKey.id](http://epicIssueKey.id) as Long)  
}

static setEpic(com.exalate.basic.domain.hubobject.v1\.BasicHubIssue issue, String epicName)

{ issue.customFields.“Epic Link”.value = getEpic(epicName) }

}

(The following was raised as a ticket and the client answered it there).
