This article explains how to create multiple sub-tasks for JQL filter results using Jira Command Line Interface (CLI).

Instructions

  1. Create a filter called Demo with required JQL query as shown below:

    Code Block
    project = "Support Request" AND issuetype = Task AND resolution is EMPTY


  2. Create a text file with CreateIssue createIssue action and fill the required data with summaryparenttype parameters as shown in the following screenshot:
  3. Combine the actions runFromIssueList and run to create multiple sub-tasks for JQL results. This example works because text file contains createIssue action and it is  as the parameter names for CreateIssuecreateIssue.

    Code Block
    themeMidnight
    --action runFromIssueList --jql "filter = Demo" --common "--action run --file "/Users/appfireuser001/Documents/subtasks.txt" "


    CreateIssue


Info

It is recommended to test this scenario in a test environment or run the action with the --simulate parameter to verify the behaviour before implementing it in production.
