概要

In JIRA Agile, it is possible to create multiple LexoRank fields to manage the backlog. In case there a decision to remove those additional Rank fields, the steps below can be followed.

ソリューション

It's possible to skip straight to points 5 & 6, 1 - 4 are there to identify any filters that may be using the rank field that's going to be deleted.

1. Run the following SQL to list down all Rank custom field:

   SELECT id, cfname from customfield WHERE customfieldtypekey = 'com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:gh-lexo-rank';
   

   This will return results such as:

     id   | cfname
   -------+--------
    10004 | Rank
    10005 | Rank1
   (2 row)

2. Run the following SQL to identify the default Rank custom field:

   SELECT propertyvalue FROM propertyentry LEFT JOIN propertynumber ON propertyentry.ID = propertynumber.ID WHERE property_key = 'GreenHopper.LexoRank.Default.customfield.id';

   This returns the below, which verifies that the Rank1 custom field is not the default.

    propertyvalue 
   ---------------
            10004
   (1 row)

3. Run the following SQL to identify existing filters using the duplicated rank field (in this case, Rank1). Remember to replace Rank1 with the appropriate Custom Field Name and 10005 with the id from step 1.

   SELECT id, filtername, authorname FROM searchrequest WHERE reqcontent LIKE '%Rank1%' OR reqcontent like '%cf[10005]%';

4. Inform the user (authorname) to update their existing filter to use the default Rank field.

5. Unlock the rank custom field, as per Unlock a locked Jira Software Server or Data Center custom field.

6. Delete the rank custom field by navigating through (Administration > Issues > Custom Fields) .
