Create Component

UiPath.Jira.Activities.CreateComponent

The Create Component activity uses the Jira API to create a new component (Component) for a specific project (Project Key).

The activity outputs a component object (Component) that can be used as an input variable in subsequent activities (e.g., Component in Delete Component).

How it works​

The following steps are an example of how the activity works from design time (i.e., the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.

  1. Complete the Setup steps.
  2. Add the Jira Scope activity to your project.
  3. Add the Create Component activity inside the Jira Scope activity.
  4. Create and enter a String and a Name variable for the Input properties.
  5. Create and enter a String and a Project Key variable for the Input properties.
  6. Create and enter an Component and a Component variable for the Output properties.
