Create subtasks based on the values of a choice question (checkbox, dropdown or multi-select dropdown) in a form. | Cloud | Any scripting tool, such as JMWE, Power Scripts or Scriptrunner, that uses Groovy. |
Script | |
Installation instructions | |
Possible use cases | Use this script to create subtasks based on checkboxes on a form. For example, create subtasks for IT and Facilities based on check boxes on an employee onboarding form. |
Limitations | All options must be on the same choice field inside the same form. The code between lines 101 and 105 may need to be amended to include other fields that have been set as required for creating subtasks in your instance. If there are multiple copies of the same form on the issue, the script will run on the last (most recently added) copy of the form. Issues can only be created for Subtask (child) issue types (as opposed to standard issue types). You will need to refresh in order to see the newly added subtasks. This script may not work if the form is over 32 KB. You can limit the size of your forms by using multiple smaller forms, and by including character/word limits on your text fields. This script will not work on Legacy Forms.
