Clone an issue and directly link it with the oc (via workflows)

Created May 24, 2024 07:18

Hi,

I currently try to figure out how to use workflows with the editor.

But I seem to struggle on this one: I want to duplicate an issue and than link the duplicated issue with the original one.

What do I need to do?
Thanks

Hi Ph Hoffmeist,

You can use the Clone Issue workflow as a baseline and just add linking one issue to another by updating the issue.links property. You can find an example of linking two issues here.

Also, more information on JavaScript workflows can be found here:

Videos: YouTrack Workflows in JavaScript, Introduction to JavaScript Workflows in YouTrack 2017.3. Both feature a slightly outdated UI, but the core principles still stand;
The Workflow Tutorial;
The articles under the Use Cases for Workflows section that contain workflow samples.
