getParentIssue

Note: The release of JMCF for Jira Cloud 3.0 introduced the ability to access data from other issues through the getParentIssue, getChildIssues, and getLinkedIssues APIs. While access to fields on related issues is now possible, updates to any related issue fields will not trigger a recalculation of the scripted field!

Description

Get the Parent issue for a given issue.

Parameters

Returns

Returns a Promise to the value; you must use await.

Returns an issue object.

Examples

Return the Affects versions and Fix versions of the Parent issue.

const parentIssue = await api.issue.getParentIssue(issue) const parentVers = await api.issue.getFields(parentIssue,["versions","fixVersions"]) return json.stringify(parentVers)

Returns:

{ "versions":[], "fixVersions": [ { "self":"https://api.atlassian.com/ex/jira/<id>/rest/api/2/version/10000", "id":"10000", "description":"", "name":"2.1", "archived":false, "released":false } ] }
