Create/group Issues in JIRA mapping to JIRA EPIC instead of mapping to JIRA Project

Open vcmgc27 opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Hello,

Looking for a possibility of using this JIRA plugin to create / map issues from scans directly to JIRA EPIC instead of mapping it to JIRA project.

Aim is to arrange/manage issues under one JIRA project with individual EPIC's group issues from individual project scans.

Is there a possibility to modify/customize the existing code to map issues to EPIC instead of JIRA projects.

Thanks

When you say "issues from individual project scans." do you mean you would like any issues (vulnerability, policy, etc) relating to a specific code location to be mapped to an epic? and issues for other code locations would be mapped to different epic's?

Yes, for example

  1. Different Projects in Hub are A,B and C to which code is scanned.
  2. Above projects having version as 1.0 (for all A, B, C)
  3. In JIRA, we have JIRA project named: Customers

Now, we need to group or map the issues (vulnerability, policy, etc) of different project in Hub to JIRA project Customers as below:

                       - Customers (JIRA Project) 
                              - Project A (EPIC) - This epic will be created manually before initiating scans.
                                    - Version 1.0 (Story) - Helps to group issues based on versions
                                             - Issues (vulnerability, policy, etc) found in Hub scan for v 1.0 code of 
                                                 **A**
                       
                     - Customers (JIRA Project) 
                              - Project B (EPIC) - This epic will be created manually before initiating scans.
                                    - Version 1.0 (Story) - Helps to group issues based on versions
                                             - Issues (vulnerability, policy, etc) found in Hub scan for v 1.0 code of 
                                                **B**

So, the above mapping will help us to organize the issues and avoid confusions in JIRA project board.
