Setup info for new issue notifications is incorrect

Answered

Created January 29, 2018 02:58

In one of the setup steps to enable sending new issue notification to users who create issues through emails, it says the following:

If you choose to send a notification, just add the following lines of code to the Collect related emails on issue creation rule of the Notify Multiple Unregistered Users workflow (right before the Last message related emails=null line):

var reporterEmail = Last message related emails.split(" ",preserveAllTokens).first sendMail(reporterEmail, "Your subject", "Your email body")

The problem is - the line "Last message related emails=null" does not exist anywhere in that code!

Can someone please help?

Hi,

The documentation is gonna be updated soon. This code is written in old API. In the new (JS-based) API you need to add the following:

// on top, after 2 other requires
var notifications = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/notifications');

// after issue.fields.lastEmails = null;

var message = {
  fromName: 'YouTrack', // set whichever name you prefer
  toEmails: lastMessageRelatedEmails.slice(0, 1),
  subject: '[YouTrack] New Issue', // set a subject you like
  body: 'The text of the notification' // set a full body of your notification
};
notifications.sendEmail(message, issue);
