Get project key from Project Picker Field

[Tim Finch]

Hi

Quick groovy question for you fine folks...

We have a customer field - project picker - which uses the project name.

As part of a larger groovy script...
we want specifically to get the project key based on the project name selected in the project picker field.

Any quick solutions for this?

Thanks in advance...

Hi,

When you get the value of the customfield you can use this method from projectManager class :

then get the project key with this method :
