How to copy Issue ID to the custom field

[Haris Becic]

Hi,

We have following use case. The procedure is following: I create a new JIRA issue and the custom field "Issue ID" is only on "Edit" and "View" screen. When the issue is created the "Issue ID" Field contains the ID which is actually JIRA "internal" ID. For example: 22679 should be copied to the custom field in this case.

Thanks a lot BR

Hi @HarisBecic,

Currently it's not possible to do it. I will study the possibility to support it in a future version of the plugin. I will keep you up to date.

We would love this feature too

Hi @HarisBecic and @jkisters,

I have added support for this feature in version 2.2.39_beta_7 by including functions issueIDFromKey() and issueKeyFromID() in the parser. You can find a detailed explanation on how they work at parser's help.

You can use this function, for example, at post-function "Copy a parsed text to a field" in advanced parsing mode.

Awesome! Our Plugin "Epic Sum Up" recently got a new custom field which stores the ID internally, we can now recommend JWT to users working on automations that use this field.

This issue duplicates Issue #659.
