setting field default value for a specific group of users.

Kurt Callebaut_njs1wb

Hi, i find some posts, but did not find a real answer to it, so...

 

How can we set a default value in a custom field, depending on the user that is logged in ?

i also cannot set the user group by default, like user is automatically set to reporter field.

 

anyone any idea ?

Hi!

I suppose you refer when creating the issue. Using ScriptRunner you could create a postfunction. Something like:

def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser();
def isInGroup = ComponentAccessor.groupManager.getUserNamesInGroup(equipoQaUsers).contains(currentUser);
CustomField yourField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_XXXXX");

if (isInGroup){
yourField.updateValue(....)
}
