Description
Summary
When importing a project with a web link, it does not preserve the link.
Environment
- Mac OS X 10.8.4
- PostgreSQL 9.1
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a new project.
- Create an issue in that project.
- Web Link it to something (e.g.: in the screenshot).
- Create an XML backup.
- Delete the issue.
- Project Import that backup, overwriting the project.
- Access the issue.
Expected Results
The Web Link is present.
Actual Results
The Web Link is not present.
Notes
Raised as a bug as unsure if new feature/improvement or a bug. We don't have any mention of web links in our Restoring a Project from Backup documentation.
Workaround:
The API referenced is here:
This step will performed after the project has been imported in the target source:
https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.6.1/#api/2/issue-getRemoteIssueLinks
Basically we'd do a simple get from the target for all the issues in a project:
GET URLOFSOURCE/rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/remotelink
{
"id": 10001,
"self": "http://10.125.88.109:8080/jira730/rest/api/2/issue/KRIS-11/remotelink/10001",
"application": {},
"object": {
"url": "https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.6.1/#api/2/issue-getRemoteIssueLinks",
"title": "test",
"icon": {
"url16x16": "https://docs.atlassian.com/favicon.ico"
},
"status": {
"icon": {}
}
}
}
All you need to do is change the URL to the target instance and the call to a post, the JSON doesn't need to be reformated
POST /rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/remotelink
{
"id": 10001,
"self": "http://10.125.88.109:8080/jira730/rest/api/2/issue/KRIS-11/remotelink/10001",
"application": {},
"object": {
"url": "https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.6.1/#api/2/issue-getRemoteIssueLinks",
"title": "test",
"icon": {
"url16x16": "https://docs.atlassian.com/favicon.ico"
},
"status": {
"icon": {}
}
}
}
