RIADA Insights - Filter Issue and Filter Assign Scope using inboundreferences

[Deleted user]

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how I would do this.

I have a field that points to an object type, I want to filter the available objects based on the value in another field having the object set in a specific attribute. Confusing..

Field 1: Requested For

Points at a object that defines users.

This object has a attribute called "Zip" that references a Zip Code object

Field 2: Zip Code

I want to auto set this to the zip code on the object selected in field 1. Or filter the list down to just that zip

Now, this is a bad idea really, or at least broken logic, as the goal is to populate a default zip but allow the team member creating the issue to change it from the "Requested For"'s default.  Broken logic as the Filter Assign does not actually set the value and the Filter Issue would not allow selecting another zip. So my solution is to set it in a post function on create and have a process where the team member changes it if needed after creation.

 But, I couldn't come up with a solution to use the filters if I wanted to so I decided to reach out to see if an answer helped me wrap my head around it.

This was pretty simple and going to chalk it up to staring at my computer for far too long.

object having inboundReferences(key = ${Requested For})
