How to remove field values when another custom field values changes

[PLaksh11]

Hello Community,

We have multi selected field value which user can select single or multiple values.

Ex for multi select field values: Apple, orange, Banana and Grapes

When User selects Apple and orange then we have corresponding fields which needs to filled.

Ex for corresponding fields: Apple1,Appl2 Apple3, Orange1, Ornage2 and Orange3 Custom fields.

Later if user removes "Apple" from multi select custom field then we want to remove  Apple1,Appl2 Apple3 values automatically.

Is there any way that we can achieve this from Jira automation rules or script runner?

Note: we are using Jira cloud

Hi @PLaksh11  - Have you tried creating the Automation rule? Can you share what you have? 

Basically, you will start with a Field Value Changed trigger, then use a series of IF/THEN Conditions to accomplish what you want.

Hi @PLaksh11 

Yes, and...to the suggestions from @John Funk 

We need to see the details of your rule and option selections to provide specific suggestions. 

Until we see those, if your different option values indeed follow a pattern as you describe, please see this article for how to remove values from on list using the match() function and then use advanced edit with JSON to make the field update:

Hi @John Funk and @Bill Sheboy  Thanks for the Reply. We got the solution, we used If condition with "doesn't not contain" Condition and it work.

Glad you got it to work. Can you post the whole rule here so future readers will know what to do? Thanks!

Hi @PLaksh11

Welcome to the Community!

Please inform, are Apple1,Appl2 Apple3, Orange1, Ornage2 and Orange3 separate custom fields or these are values for one customfield?

[PLaksh11]

All are separate custom fields.
