How do to set default visibility rules for new issue?

I can't figure out how to set visibility to some group for all newly created issues. I could not find any relevant setting in the Administration section nor was I able to create a workflow rule for that.

Any ideas how it can be done? Thank you!

Hello Hugo,

I'd suggest the following rule:

var entities = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/entities');

exports.rule = entities.Issue.onChange({
  title: 'Test_visibility',
  guard: function(ctx) {
    var issue = ctx.issue;
    return issue.becomesReported; // or issue.isChanged('summary'), it's up to you to decide which condition to use
  },
  action: function(ctx) {
    ctx.issue.permittedGroup = ctx.technicaTeam; // or ctx.issue.permittedGroups.add(ctx.technicaTeam)
  },
  requirements: {
    technicaTeam: {
      type: entities.UserGroup,
      name: 'Tecnica-team'
    }
  }
});

Dmitry,

is issue http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/JT-8857 what you need?

Could you please give me some example on how to do that?

I mean a have a group, how do I set it on an issue? I guess I need to retrieve it from from the db, then assign it to the issue (or vice versa?), right? I am completely lost here and there does not seem any workflow examples on that.

Thanks!

I found that it's impossible to set permittedGroup for now (http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/JT-10747). I'll fix it and the fix should be delivered with the next bugfix release.

http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/JT-2981 fixed. Should be included to the coming soon bugfix release 3.0.3. There is an attached sample to the issue.

Thanks Maxim!

So as soon as the bugfix is released our internal youtrack (jetbrains) will be updated as well?

Hi to all,

need some help.

I'm using YouTrack 2017.4, and i'm trying to define a rule to set default group on a new issue, in this case, i want the default project team.

I've try several options, but the field "visible to", continues with "All users".

This is my current option:

var entities = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/entities');

exports.rule = entities.Issue.action({
  title: 'Test_visibility',
  command: 'test_visibility',
  guard: function(ctx) {
    var issue = ctx.issue;
    return issue.permittedGroup;
  },
  action: function(ctx) {
    var issue = ctx.issue;
    if (issue.isChanged.summary){
      issue.permittedGroup = 'Tecnica-team';
    }
  },
  requirements: {
    'Tecnica-team': {
      type: entities.UserGroup,
      name: 'Tecnica-team'
    }
  }
});

Thanks for the help

Hi Alexander,

thanks for the help, unfortunately it did not work.

Sorry, I missed one more mistake in the script you originally posted, namely, it should be 'onChange' instead of 'action'. Corrected my answer.

Hi Alexander,

thanks for the help.

one of the problems I had was to expect the field to change when imput data in the summary, it only worked when I ran a test on a rule "State-machine".

Get this working, only after submit task.

This is my last code (working). :)

var entities = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/entities');

exports.rule = entities.Issue.onChange({
  title: 'Test_visibility',
  guard: function(ctx) {
    var issue = ctx.issue;
    return issue.isChanged('summary');
  },
  action: function(ctx) {
    if (ctx.issue.isChanged('summary')){
        ctx.issue.permittedGroups.add(ctx.tecnicaTeam);   
        }    
  },
  requirements: {
    tecnicaTeam: {
      type: entities.UserGroup,
      name: 'Tecnica-team'
    }
  }
});

 

Best regards

There's no need for the same check to be performed in action function, but it certainly does no harm.

Glad that it's now working for you.
