Version 2.2.1 jqlsearch has ill-parsed json #33

Open MattUebel opened 7 years ago

MattUebel commented 7 years ago

Previous version would return a Reporter name, Status name etc., overhaul of jira_rest.py now returns what seems an exhaustive set of properties for each field ( the reporter's id, path for icon, icon size etc).

While these things might be useful in some cases (hard to imagine where the icon size would be relevant, but who knows), the real issue is that the resulting row passed to the search results is a combination of correctly structured json with incorrectly structured json, at least to the extent that splunk can't parse it. We get the Reporter field being what looks like a json object, but are unable to directly access the sub-objects. I.E., Reporter.displayName.

Also, list objects, like the labels field, should be MV fields in the result event.

Hi Matt! Thanks for the report. I'm no longer supporting this app, and the current maintainers are no longer maintaining a github repository for it, so bug reports probably belong on answers.splunk.com instead of here.

I'll update the README here to make it clear. I asked to the the "details" on splunkbase updated but it never happened :(
