Jira SPI and REST API changes in Tempo 11

With the release of Tempo Timesheets 11, Planner 8, and Budgets 14, Tempo will be making changes to the Jira SPI and Jira REST API. This will result in the Tempo Team custom field being returned as an object rather than a string. It also will make it possible to update the Jira SPI with an object.

While it will still be possible to use the existing Jira REST API endpoints to update the team custom field with name or ID, it will no longer be possible to use the Jira SPI to do so.

You can see a detailed summary of the impacts that these changes will have below:

Jira SPI - Team Custom Field Changes

The team custom field is now returned as an object, but no longer supports updating by name or ID.

The team custom field is now returned as an object (changed)

Issue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("ABC-123");

CustomField teamCustomField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(111L);

Team result = (Team) teamCustomField.getValue(issue);

assertThat(result.getId()).isEqualTo(22);

assertThat(result.getName()).isEqualTo("Team awesome");

The team custom field can now be updated with an object (new)

Issue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("ABC-123");

CustomField teamCustomField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(111L);

FieldLayout fieldLayout = fieldLayoutManager.getFieldLayout(issue);

Team team = teamManager.getTeamByName("Team awesome");

teamCustomField.updateValue(

       fieldLayout.getFieldLayoutItem(teamCustomField.getId()),

       issue,

       new ModifiedValue(teamCustomField.getValue(issue), team),

       new DefaultIssueChangeHolder());
