About

The Quick Subtasks Plugin for Jira allows you to write down a list of subtasks using a special syntax anywhere you want - e.g. a text editor or in your wiki and afterwards paste them in your Jira instance and create multiple subtasks for a given issue.

In addition one may define pre-set subtask-templates for each project in the administration area or custom user templates.

A workflow function allows to create sub-tasks from a given template when the designated workflow transition is triggered.

Features

The latest release contains the following features:

  • Integration into Jira's issue operation menu

  • Creating multiple subtasks for a selected issue

  • Specifying the summary, description and the estimated time for each subtask using a special syntax

  • Specifying the issue types for all subtasks to be created

  • Permission checks to ensure a secure integration

  • Manage multiple sub-task templates for each project in the administration area

  • The security schema of the parent issue is applied to all subtasks created

  • Subtasks inherit the priority from their parent issue, otherwise you may specify it for every subtask

  • Create subtasks when a workflow transition is reached

  • Integration into the workflow editor

  • Set one or more labels for each subtask

  • Use placeholders in a subtasks summary

  • Setting dynamic due dates

  • User customized subtask templates

Usage / Variables

In its simplest form you may specify multiple subtasks to be created for the current issue by typing - summary - if you need more than one - each new line in this format makes a new subtask.

In addition you may specify the following additional fields for the subtasks:

Estimate

  • estimate: The estimated time for the subtask. An example: Create an issue with a summary "Fix XSS Bug" and an estimate 4 days and 20 minutes:
    - Fix XSS Bug / estimate:"4d 20m"

Assignee

  • assignee: The Jira user the subtask will be assigned to. An example: Create an issue with a summary "Fix XSS Bug" and assign it to the user named "admin":

Since 3.3.0 you may use placeholders to set the current user as assignee or to inherit the assignee from the parent issue.

Please note: If you've disable unassigned issues in the general system configuration and no assignee is set in your subtask template or the assignee can't be found, the plugin tries to use the project lead as the fallback assignee (since version 3.3.1).

#!bash
    - Fix XSS Bug / assignee:"admin"
    - Add Documentation / assignee:"@current"
    - CDN Updates / assignee:"@inherit" 

Description

  • description: The issue's description. An example: Create an issue with a summary "Fix XSS Bug" and a description "Filter request parameters":
    - Fix XSS Bug / description:"Filter request parameters"

Multiline descriptions (since 4.0.0): You may use {n} as a placeholder for a newline here. e.g.

 - subtask / description:"this is a list{n}* one{n}* two{n}* three{n}"

Priority

  • priority: The issue priority. If not specified, the parent issue's priority will be applied to the subtask. An example: Create an issue with a summary "Fix XSS Bug" and set the priority to "Critical":
    - Fix XSS Bug / priority:"Critical"

Component

  • component: The component. Since 4.3.0 the parent issue's components may be inherited (@inherit). An example: Create an issue with a summary "Fix XSS Bug" and assign the component "Documentation":
    - Fix XSS Bug / component:"Documentation"

Another example: Create an issue with summary "QA" and inherit the components from the parent issue:

    - QA / component:"@inherit"

You may also assign multiple components, separated by a comma e.g.:

    - QA / component:"Component1,Component2"

Labels

  • labels (since 2.4.0): One or more labels. Separate multiple labels using a comma. An example: Create an issue with summary "Website error" and add two labels "bug" and "unconfirmed":

Since 3.2.0 labels may also be inherited from the parent issue using @inherit as a placeholder.

    - Website error / labels:"bug,unconfirmed"
    - Add documentation / labels:"docs,@inherit,qa"

Fix-Version

  • fixversion (since 2.5.0): The fix version. The parent issue's fix versions may be inherited using @inherit.

  • An example: Create an issue with summary "Documentation" and fixversion "v1.0":

    - Documentation / fixversion:"v1.0". 
  • Another example: Create an issue with summary "Documentation" and fixversions inherited from the parent issue:
    - Documentation / fixversion:"@inherit"

Affected-Version

  • affectedversion (since 2.5.0): The affected version. The parent issue's affected versions may be inherited using @inherit.

  • An example: Create an issue with summary "Documentation" and affectedversion "v1.0":

- Documentation / affectedversion:"v1.0"
  • Another example. Create an issue with summary "Documentation" and affectedversion inherited from the parent issue:
- Documentation / affectedversion:"@inherit"

Issue Type

  • issueType (since 2.5.0): The subtask issue type. An example: Create an issue with summary "Website Error" and subtask issue type "Bugfix Subtask":
- Website Error / issueType:"Bugfix Subtask"

Due Date

  • duedate (since 3.0.0): The due date. There are three ways to set a due date:

  • Inherit it from the parent issue using

duedate:"@inherit"
  • Specify an absolute date e.g.
duedate:"2014-12-24"
  • Specify a relative date e.g.
duedate:"@now+1d"
  • You may use m for month, d for day and y for year here to specify the relative date you need.

  • You may also specify a negative time span to substract the date from the parent issue's date or the current date (since 3.4.0) e.g.:

duedate:"@inherit-4d"
duedate:"@now-4d"

Reporter

  • reporter (since 3.0.0): The reporter. Since 4.3.0, reporter may be inherited from the parent issue (@inherit). An example: Create an issue with summary "Test" and set the user "joe" as the reporter:
- Test / reporter:"joe" 

Another example: Create an issue with summary "QA" and inherit reporters from the parent issue:

- QA / reporter:"@inherit" 
  • link (since 3.3.0): Issue links. You may specify inward/outgoing links using the link type name and a target issue. An example: "Create an issue with summary "Test" and add an inward link of issue-link-type Blocker to the issue DEMO-4:

- Test / link:"Blocker <- DEMO-4"
Another example: Create an issue with summary "Subtask" and adding an outgoing link of issue-link-type Blocker to the issue DEMO-4:

- Subtask / link:"Blocker -> DEMO-4"

Custom Fields (Inheriting)

  • cfield (since 4.0.0): Allows to inherit the parent issue's custom-fields. An example: Create an issue with a summary "Test" and inherit the customfield cf1 and cf2 from the parent issue:
- Test / cfield:"cf1:@inherit" cfield:"cf2:@inherit"

The following custom-field types are currently suported:

  • Checkboxes
  • Text Field (Single Line)
  • Date Picker
  • Number Field
  • Text Field (Multi Line)
  • URL Field
  • User Picker (single user)
  • Select List (multiple choices)
  • Date Time Picker

Custom Fields (Assigning)

  • cfield (since 4.2.0): Allows to assign values to the sub-tasks custom-fields. An example: Create an issue with a summary "Test" and set the value of the number custom-field named somenumber to the value 3.5:
- Test / cfield:"somenumber:3.5"

The following custom-field types are currently supported (more to come):

  • Text Field (Single Line)
  • Number Field
  • Text Field (Multi Line)
  • Select List (Single Choice)

When using Text Field (Multi Line) custom fields, since version 4.10 you may use {n} as a placeholder for a newline here. e.g.

 - subtask / cfield:"cfieldname:this is a list{n}* one{n}* two{n}* three{n}"

Watcher

  • watcher (since 4.3.0): Issue watchers. Since 4.6.0 the parent issue's watchers may be inherited using @inherit as placeholder.

An example: Create an issue with summary "Test" and add users "selma" and "fred" as watchers:

- Test / watcher:"selma,fred" 

Another example: Create an issue with summary "Test" and inherit the parent issue's watchers:

- Test / watcher:"@inherit" 

Using Placeholders in the Summary

You may use placeholders for each subtask's summary. Supported placeholders are:

  • @{summary}: The parent issue's summary.

  • @{key}: The parent issue's issue key.

Dynamic Due Dates

You may specify a due date in a static format e.g. 2014-05-23 or as a relative date e.g.:

    - subtask / duedate:"@now"

    - subtask / duedate:"@now+1d"

    - subtask / duedate:"@now+1m"

    - subtask / duedate:"@now+1y"

    - subtask / duedate:"@now+1d1m1y"

    - subtask / duedate:"@inherit"

Additional Features

  • Issue Type: You may choose the issue type in the select box in the dataentry screen or - when using a workflow postprocessing function - in the workflow editor.

  • Prefixing: If you select this option in the dataentry screen every subtask to be created will be prefixed by the parent issue's summary.

Template Management

When creating subtasks with the Quick Subtasks Addon regularly, you can save some time by creating re-usable templates.

Those templates are available in the Quick Subtasks Create Screen and looks similar to this one:

Multiple Templates available

The following scopes for templates may be used:

User Templates

A user template may be viewed, edited and used only by the user that created it.

You may manage your personal templates (user templates) by clicking in your profile picture in Jira's top navigation and by selecting "Subtask Templates" there.

You should be able to manage your personal templates now in the following screen:

Personal Template Management

Project Templates

As a project administrator or system administrator you may manage subtask templates for each Jira project.

These templates are available only for the specific project and may be configured in the project administration area as shown below:

Project  Template Management

Global Templates

If you want subtask templates to be visible for all projects you may create global subtask templates.

You can find the management screen in the Jira system administration area as shown below:

Global Template Management

Examples

    - Implementation

    - Write unit tests / estimate:"3h"

    - Write Acceptance tests / estimate:"6h" labels:"testing,atdd" fixversion:"1.5-alpha"

    -Code Review / assignee:"mkops" component:"testing" affectedversion:"preview-1"

    - End user documentation / description:"Create end user documentation" estimate:"4h" assignee:"mkops" priority:"Critical"

    - Call back customer / issueType:"CRM-Subtask"

Pasting the text from above into the plugin would create the following subtasks for the selected issue:

  • A subtask with summary "Implementation"

  • A subtask with summary "Write unit test" and and time estimate of 3 hours

  • A subtask with summary "Write Acceptance test" a time estimate of 6 hours, two labels named "testing" and "attd" and fixversion 1.5-alpha assigned

  • A subtask with summary "Code Review" -> the missing whitespace after the "-" is no problem here, the task will be assigned to the user "mkops" and the component named "testing" will be assigned to the issue also as the version "preview-1" as affected version.

  • A subtask with summary "End user documentation", a description "Create end user documentation" and and time estimate of 4 hours, assigned to the user "mkops" and its priority set to "Critical"

  • A subtask with summary "Call back customer", the subtask issue type "CRM-Subtask" (must exist!) is assigned

Legacy Data Format Migrations

A rare condition exists, where users, updating from an old Jira version with the Quick Subtasks addon in version <4.0 installed have issues because the database migration did not run as expected.

Therefore in the Quick Subtasks Administration panel there is the possibility to run these migrations manually (since version 4.8.0).

Be careful to backup any data before, I am not responsible for any data loss and be sure to copy the conversion log from the panel afterwards to inspect which artifacts were migrated.
