Problem

You want to copy the watchers and the reporter from the original issue when developers close an issue with a resolution duplicate.

Solution

Write the code

Enter the following SIL™ code.

string u; number n=0; n=size(fieldHistory(key, "Link")); if (n>0 and resolution=="Duplicate") { string dKey=getElement(fieldHistory(key, "Link"),n - 1); // history %dKey%.watchers=addElementIfNotExist(%dKey%.watchers, reporter); for (u in watchers) { %dKey%.watchers=addElementIfNotExist(%dKey%.watchers, u); } }

Next, add this code to the post function on the Resolve issue transition.
