Introduction
The Tissue Gadget use the issues from the primary set of issues to join up with linked issues from the secondary set of issues.
It will display blank values when there is no linked issues. This is similar to a Left Join in database terminology.
In some cases, the users may only want to display rows which have matching linked issues.
The Inner Join will skip those issues in the primary set of issues which does not have linked issues
Example
Primary Set of Issues
Key | Summary | Linked Issue |
|---|---|---|
TASK-1 | To perform UAT | Subtasks-1 |
TASK-2 | To scan for bugs | Subtasks-2 |
Secondary Set of Issues (to be linked)
Key | Summary | Linked Issue |
|---|---|---|
TASK-2 | To scan for bugs | Subtasks-2 |
TASK-3 | To deploy to production | |
TASK-4 | To standby for issues | Subtasks-2 |
How the tables will look in TISSUE gadget and ScriptRunner’s Enhanced Search
TISSUE Gadget is configured to work like a 'Left Join,' which means that all rows from Table 1 will be displayed, even if there is no matching value in Table 2.
Any missing data from the right table will show as empty values.
Left Join (Used by TISSUE gadget)
Key | Summary | Linked Issue |
|---|---|---|
TASK-1 | To perform UAT | Subtasks-1 |
TASK-2 | To scan for bugs | Subtasks-2 |
TASK-4 | To standby for issues | Subtasks-2 |
TASK-3 | To deploy to production |
ScriptRunner’s Enhanced Search, using an 'Inner Join,' will only display rows where there is a match between the two tables. If there are no matching records, those rows will be excluded from the result, meaning rows with empty values won't be shown
Inner Join (Possible through the use of ScriptRunner’s Enhanced Search)
Key | Summary | Linked Issue |
|---|---|---|
TASK-1 | To perform UAT | Subtasks-1 |
TASK-2 | To scan for bugs | Subtasks-2 |
TASK-4 | To standby for issues | Subtasks-2 |
Steps to achieve Inner Join
It is possible to use ScriptRunner Enhanced Search to filter the primary set of
Head to ScriptRunner Enhanced Search
Enter your JQL
Check that the issues displayed are what you expect
Save JQL as a filter
Update the filter options as required
Use the new filter in TISSUE by modifying the JQL
filter = <"YourCreatedFilterName">
You will be able to see the same results shown in Step 3 in your TISSUE Gadget
