Updating epic link field through REST causes 500 Internal Error

XMLWordPrintable

      Was raised as part of a support ticket.
      This seems to be caused because the EpicLinkCFType returns an IssueImpl object, which at the side of JIRA gets casted to a String (which throws an exception) (see TextCustomFieldOperationsHandler.getInitialValue()).
      It's considered to be a TextCustomFieldOperationsHandler because of this check in CustomFieldImpl:

      public RestFieldOperationsHandler getRestFieldOperation()
    {
        CustomFieldType customFieldType = getCustomFieldType();
        if (customFieldType instanceof RestCustomFieldTypeOperations)
        {
            return ((RestCustomFieldTypeOperations) customFieldType).getRestFieldOperation(this);
        }
        return new TextCustomFieldOperationsHandler(this, getI18nHelper());
    }

            Hi!

            This issue seems to be fixed, but has it been actually rolled out to JIRA Cloud? I am using Aha! integrated with JIRA Cloud, and there is this issue with synchronizing Epics: https://support.aha.io/hc/en-us/articles/205401525-Your-epic-name-or-description-isn-t-updated-from-JIRA-to-Aha- which links to this issue. The synchronization still does not work, so I wonder whom should I poke?

            I believe this fixed caused JSW-13830 since this was about the only thing in 6.7.14.

            There is workaround for this issue.
            The public REST Api provides resources that do equivalent work:

            Well ain't this a bummer. It seems that it has been working all along; however, the MSXML2.XMLHTTP returns a status of 1223 (Unknown) instead of a valid 204 "no content" and so Excel VBA craps out. Took a lot of digging, but stumbled across a note stating

            "XMLHTTPRequest implementation in MSXML HTTP (...) does not handle HTTP responses with status code 204 (No Content) properly; the `status' property has the value 1223.".

            I just ignore the error and the world is fine. No content is exactly what is expected back and ONLY a successful SEND would cause the error because no content is returned.

            Thanks Douglas - your workaround is now working for me. Still would like to see a proper fix for the JIRA REST API handling of the EPIC LINK field.

            As far as I can tell everything is setup correctly. I have several other transactions working (GETs, POSTs) - this seems to be
            1. Known Atlassian EPIC LINK issue through the published API.
            2. ALTERNATE APPROACH - /greenhopper: Some weird thing going on in VBA with the MSXML2.XMLHTTP object in it's parsing of a JSON object with array structure "[ ...]". If I remove the array "[....]" it goes through and I get the expected JIRA-side error response.

            I think I'm cursed.

            are your authentication headers setup correctly?

            Been hitting a brick wall with the VBA's MSXML2.XMLHTTP object. Here's my code:

            Sub testEPIC()
            Dim objHTTP2 As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP
            baseURL = "https://<mydomain>/"

            httpCMD = "PUT"
            epicKEY = "MCID-472"
            storyKEY = "MCID-417"
            httpURL = baseURL + "rest/greenhopper/1.0/epics/" + epicKEY + "/add"
            httpSEND = "

            {""ignoreEpics"": true, ""issueKeys"": [ """ + storyKEY + """]}

            "

            objHTTP2.Open httpCMD, httpURL, False
            objHTTP2.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/json"
            objHTTP2.setRequestHeader "Accept", "application/json"
            objHTTP2.setRequestHeader "Set-Cookie", httpCOOKIE ' set by previous login
            objHTTP2.send httpSEND
            End Sub

            So I know this works for other GETs/PUTs/POSTs when using the ".../rest/api/latest/" related URLs; however this never makes it out of VBA.
            The httpSEND of the JSON string

            { "ignoreEpics": true, "issueKeys": [ "MCID-417" ] }

            craps out with a VBA error:
            Run-time error "=2147467259 (80004005)':
            Unspecified error
            ...yet I've successfully sent other JSON strings via the same mechanism. Oh, and cut/paste the same string into a browser REST api works too.

            Anybody any ideas?

            So.... very interesting. Seems to be a VBA issue. I found a stupid typo in the URL - my bad - but then it got really interesting. Run-time errors with the excel XML plug-in and JSON formatting. The MSXML2.XMLHTTP .send does not like unquoted "true" nor array "[" "]" characters. Removing provides the JIRA error message as expected. With them, the send doesn't even happen (80004004 and 80004005 run-time errors in VBA).

            So now I need to figure out JSON in an XML object ... should be fun.

            Thanks Douglas. To complicate things more, I'm actually creating an interface through Excel for bulk updates/entry (using Microsoft XML, v6.0). Getting closer - through a web-based REST browser (Postman) using:
            PUT https://<my domain>/rest/greenhopper/1.0/epics/<EPIC-KEY>/add
            and the send package:

            {"ignoreEpics":true,"issueKeys":["<ISSUE-KEY>"]}

            IT WORKS! Cut/pasted everything from excel (following same login calls).

            Still not working through the excel libraries..... Good ol' 404 error with null for uri:https://<my domain>/rest/greenhopper/1.0/epics/<EPIC-KEY>/add
            I shall keep playing - open to any suggestions.

            Yes, Jira Agile is Greenhopper. Based on my understanding, Greenhopper was the name or code name until Jira bought the project.

            The API calls however are still under the Greenhopper naming, atleast last I checked. If you're using the Rest Browser, you'll have to enable the non public api calls, so take that into consideration as well when deciding to use the updated call or not.

            Trying to figure out if Greenhopper is available on our installation. Is Greenhopper now known as Jira Agile? (see note https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-platform/jira-agile/jira-agile-development-guide)?

            @Tim Thompson

            There is a work-around, but only if you are able to use the Greenhopper API. Take a look up at the top of the comments if that is applicable to you.

            I haven't seen any response to this issue from Atlassian yet.

            One of the 1st things I need to do via REST is update EPIC assignments in bulk. Example JSON:
            {"fields": {"customfield_10006":"MCID-462"}}
            gets the 500 error.

            1. Is there a work-around?
            2. Is there an eta on a fix?

            Seems quite a few people are waiting on an update here.

            +1 here – you can SET the epic ID using syntax "key:XX-111" but any further changes to it result in error 500.

            It would help us as well if this was fixed, working with private Greenhopper API's is not the best way to create integrations.

            This issue continues to be a significant limitation for us. It prevents users of our Atlassian Connect plugin from being able to change the epic once a story has been sent to JIRA.

            Atlassian,

            What is the status of this issue? I see nobody is assigned.

            Can we get some feedback on when this issue might be addressed?

            I have a method that calls that remove link with the following JSON object

            { "issueKeys":["PROJ-10"] }

            I would post the link I found this, but I can't remember where it was. It was on one of the forums. If I can find it will repost it here.

            Douglas, what are you posting to /rest/greenhopper/1.0/epics/remove to remove the epic link from an issue?

            I was able to work around this for my purposes by using the GreenHopper rest api calls
            /rest/greenhopper/1.0/epics/

            {epicKey}

            /add
            and to clear out the epic link
            /rest/greenhopper/1.0/epics/remove

            This issue is affecting us too. Is there a workaround for changing the Epic a story is related to through the JIRA API?
