9.25.0

08 Oct 2025 

New Instance Audit built-in script

We've created a new built-in script that enables you to quickly assess the current state of your Jira environment for easy cleanup, instance optimization, and migration preparation.

Export scripts feature update: Custom fields support

Custom fields are now supported by the export scripts feature. Your export now features an Instance information folder, which includes a .json file dedicated to custom fields. This file lists all custom fields on your instance, providing details such as the custom field name, type, and ID. See the Script Registry page for more information on this feature.

Switch User feature update

In response to new Atlassian security requirements, we've removed the Switch User function from the User Management page and the user More dropdown. The Switch User function is now exclusively available as a built-in script.

Behaviours bug fixed

We've resolved a bug related to our Behaviours feature where setFieldOptions only worked for the last system field when multiple server-side scripts were created for system fields (such as Priority, Affects Version/s, Issue Type, etc.).

Compatibility with Jira 10.7.4 (with known issue)

We are now compatible with Jira 10.7.4. However, we have a known issue where multiple database pickers are experiencing issues with stattable gadgets. This is an outstanding known compatibility issue with Jira 10.7.1.

Security improvements

We've made a couple of security improvements in this release:

• We have implemented a security improvement to our switch user feature. This update strengthens our protection against potential unauthorized account access.

• We've addressed a known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE).

We want to emphasize that this update doesn't mean your instance was vulnerable to security issues. We're always working to make ScriptRunner as safe as possible, and this update is part of that ongoing effort. Check out our page on Vulnerabilities and Security for more details on how we scan for vulnerabilities and common security concerns.

9.22.0

We've introduced a new export feature in ScriptRunner. This feature allows you to export all scripts and configurations from your instance via the Script Registry, with the exception of Workflow scripts and ScriptRunner JQL function information.

In this context, "scripts" encompass a broader range of elements than typical custom script files. Specifically, we include:

• All scripts within your script roots.
• All configured custom and built-in Jobs, Listeners, Fields, Behaviours, UI Fragments, REST Endpoints.

See the Script Registry page for more information on this feature.

Documentation update: Jira 11 search API migration guide

In Jira Data Center version 10.4, Atlassian has introduced a new Search API, marking a significant overhaul of the search functionality by transitioning from Lucene to OpenSearch. Some of your scripts may break when Jira 11 is released. To avoid any downtime in your scripts when you upgrade to Jira 11, we recommend you use our Jira 11 Search API Upgrade Guide to upgrade any affected scripts.

Script Registry bug fixed

The Script Registry now correctly displays all workflow functions with scripts for each transition. Previously, only one function was shown per transition, even when multiple were set up.

Update: Jira (10.3.4) Bug affecting HAPI

05 Jun 2025

Affected Jira versions (10.3.4) and all ScriptRunner versions.

There is a bug in Jira that is affecting HAPI. When using issueInputParameters.setSkipScreenCheck(true) and certain custom field types, a NullPointerException occurs. We are working with Atlassian to resolve this bug (see JSDSERVER-16263), but we have a temporary workaround that can be applied in certain instances so that you can continue to use HAPI. Please note that updates to any field not on the relevant screen will be silently dropped, so this workaround is not suitable for all cases.

To check to see if you are affected, look for an NullPointerException with convertToSimpleEntry (line 2 below): 

groovy
java.lang.NullPointerException
	at com.atlassian.jira.web.action.issue.util.JiraFieldParamHelper.convertToSimpleEntry(JiraFieldParamHelper.java:92)
	at com.atlassian.jira.web.action.issue.util.JiraFieldParamHelper.lambda$convertToParam$0(JiraFieldParamHelper.java:54)
	at com.atlassian.jira.web.action.issue.util.JiraFieldParamHelper.convertToParam(JiraFieldParamHelper.java:56)

In every update and transition closure that is affected, add setSkipScreenCheck(false) (shown in line 3 here):

groovy
Issues.getByKey('JRA-1').update {
    summary = 'Updated summary'
    setSkipScreenCheck(false)
}

9.17.0

Vulnerability scanner updates

We have updated and added new vulnerability scanners to reduce discrepancies in your vulnerability reports. This is an internal feature and does not require any action from you.

06 May 2025 

Compatibility with Jira 10.6

9.1.1

Compatibility with Jira 10

ScriptRunner for Jira is now compatible with Jira 10. See the Compatibility with Jira page for more information on Jira 10 best practices on upgrading your instance.

Breaking changes

There are some key breaking changes you should be aware of when upgrading to Jira 10:

• Third-party library/API removal
• JDK has been updated. The minimum supported version of the JDK is now JDK 17. 
• Fragments updates (see more below)

See the breaking changes page for the full details of all breaking changes related to this upgrade. 

Fragments updates

To adhere to Jira 10, UI Fragments had the following changes: 

• Raw XML Module Breaking Change: Fragment XML conditions scripts and web panel class scripts are now provided via XML parameters and are no longer directly set as the condition class element attribute or the web panel class element attribute value. The previous formats no longer work in Jira 10 versions of ScriptRunner. You can use the Raw XML Module Breaking Change guide to help you convert your scripts to the new fragment XML parameters format. Major changes include: 
  • Format of the XML condition class attribute and user scripts now added as parameters
  • Format of the XML Web Panel class attribute and user scripts now added as parameters

• Web Panel Breaking Change/Deprecation for Jira 10: If you used a com.atlassian.plugin.web.model.WebPanel class implementation for the provider class/script of your web panels, the way this is processed will be different after upgrading to Jira 10. Check out the Web Panel Breaking Change/Deprecation for Jira 10 guide to learn how to update scripts. Major changes include: 
  • The writeHtml method is now ignored
  • The Atlassian com.atlassian.plugin.web.model.WebPanel interface is deprecated and has moved to a new location
• Web Resource Breaking Change: If you have files in plugin.resource.directories you will have to move them to web-resources/com.onresolve.jira.groovy.groovyrunner. Check out the Web Resource Breaking Change page to learn more.

• Web Item Provider Built-In Script: Major changes include:

  • The feature will only function once Jira releases the new fragment API updates (Estimated to be available from Jira 10.1.0/10.0.2). SRPLAT-2596
  • The com.atlassian.plugin.web.api.model.WebFragmentBuilder API has moved to com.atlassian.plugin.web.model.WebFragmentBuilder. Any scripts using the old API import will need to be updated to the new location. (Once updated, your scripts will no longer show a red line under the old import; however, you cannot verify the fix fully until Atlassian releases the API mentioned in the SRPLAT-2596.)

Backward compatibility

ScriptRunner 9.1.1 will only support Jira 10.0 and above and will not be backwards compatible with earlier Jira versions. Critical bugs and security fixes will continue to be released for ScriptRunner 8.x.x. We recommend users on older versions of Jira or ScriptRunner plan their upgrade to ensure access to the to ensure access to the latest features, performance improvements, and security enhancements. We recommend following our Compatibility with Jira page for information and recommendations on how to upgrade.

Tempo compatibility

ScriptRunner for Jira Data Center is currently not compatible with Tempo after the Jira 10.0 upgrade. We aim to be compatible with Tempo soon.

Bugs fixed

• SRPLAT-2630 - Script compilation can leak file handles
