Action

Send to JIRA

Posted by Bryan Culver, Last update 6 months ago

Extending upon the actions created by Koronics Norbert and Padraic Renaghan

  • Updates the API to v3
  • Error messages are no longer added to the Draft document
  • Constructs a URL to the newly created ticket instead of the API payload and copies that to the clipboard
  • Creates using the required Atlassian Document Format for the description

Steps

  • script

    // Setup Credential object to store JIRA server info
    let credential = Credential.createWithHostUsernamePassword("jira-server", "JIRA credential");
    credential.addTextField("host", "JIRA Domain");
    credential.addTextField("project", "JIRA Project");
    credential.addTextField("username", "JIRA Username");
    credential.addPasswordField("password", "JIRA Password");
    
    // Prompt the user for their JIRA credentials
    credential.authorize();
    
    // Construct the URL for the JIRA API endpoint
    const url = `https://${credential.getValue("host")}/rest/api/3/issue/`;
    
    // Get the current draft content and split it into lines
    let lines = draft.content.split("\n");
    
    // The first line is the title of the JIRA ticket
    let title = lines[0];
    
    // The rest of the lines are the description of the JIRA ticket
    let descriptionBody = lines.slice(1).join("\n");
    
    // Construct the Atlassian Document Format (ADF) for the description
    let description = {
        "type": "doc",
        "version": 1,
        "content": [
          {

              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    
    // Construct the fields object for the JIRA API request
    let fields = { 
        "project": { "key": credential.getValue("project")},
        "issuetype": { "name": "Task" },
        "summary": title,
        "description": description,
    };
    
    // Make a POST request to the JIRA API to create a new issue
    let http = HTTP.create();
    let response = http.request({

        }
    });
    
    // Log the API response, useful for debugging
    console.log("JIRA API Response: " + response.statusCode + " -- " + response.responseText);
    
    if (response.success || response.statusCode == 201) {
        // If the request is successful, parse the response JSON and construct the URL of the new JIRA ticket
        // Add the ticket URL to the draft content and display a success message
        let r = JSON.parse(response.responseText);
        let ticketURL = "https://" + credential.getValue("host") + "/browse/" + r.key;
        let t = r.key + " \/\/ " + fields.summary + " \/\/ " + ticketURL;
        draft.content = t + "\n\n" + draft.content;
        draft.update();
        app.displaySuccessMessage("Created " + r.key + " in JIRA");
        app.setClipboard(ticketURL);
    } else {
        // If the request fails, display an error message
        app.displayErrorMessage("Failed to create JIRA ticket. Check the console for details.");
        context.fail("ERROR " + response.statusCode + " "
        + response.responseText);
    }
