Scripted Field - Need to return only toString Value, not entire string

[AndreH]

I have a scripted field that only needs to return the toString value. Instead it returns the entire string value.

Here is the Script -

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager

def componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()

def changeHistoryManager = componentManager.getChangeHistoryManager()

x = changeHistoryManager.getChangeItemsForField(issue, "Root Cause Primary")

if (x.join(' ') == "") {

return null

}

return x.join(' ')

When I run a preview it returns this string -

com.atlassian.jira.issue.history.ChangeItemBean@xxxxxxx[fieldType=custom,field=Root Cause Primary,from=,fromString=,to=1000005,toString=Business Configuration Data,created=2013-10-11 11:24:56.0]

How do I get it to return only the toString=Business Configuration Data?

The field should only show - Business Configuration Data

Thanks,

Andre

You need to transform the collection of ChangeItemBean objects to collection of String.

Here's the code:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager

def componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()

def changeHistoryManager = componentManager.getChangeHistoryManager()

x = changeHistoryManager.getChangeItemsForField(issue, "Root Cause Primary").collect { it.toString }

if (x.join(' ') == "") {

return null

}

return x.join(' ')
