Request participants #5

Closed xenago closed 1 year ago

xenago commented 2 years ago

Great work, thank you for sharing it!

Maybe I missed something but Request participants doesn't seem to be supported currently in the script.

This feature is not exactly equivalent on GitLab, but the /cc @username feature is probably the closest thing: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/197288

Any thoughts about this? Either appending the cc's to the bottom of the description or adding as a comment might work, though I haven't looked at the traffic yet to see exactly what is happening when I CC a user.

Cheers!

Hi @xenago , thanks for your input.

As far as I understand, the Participants field is a feature of Jira Service Desk, and it is not available in Jira Software (https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Adding-quot-Request-Participants-quot-in-Jira-Software/qaq-p/595627)

However this reminds me that I have not migrated the Watchers field, which is indeed most similar to /cc in Gitlab.

I didn't realize this was only supposed to be compatible with Jira Software, my bad! I assumed this was also intended to support those migrating to gitlab for e.g. ITSM projects as well.

It was indeed intended for Jira Software - only have experience with that. I should have written it more clearly in the README.

No worries, thanks for the info! The watchers field will be very useful in any case.
