Create a custom field called count with Scriptrunner

Mehvish Patel

I have to create a custom field called 'Count' to get the count of labels for a set of issues. I have to create it with Scriptrunner, for a specific project. I just want the count of labels. i'm completely new to Jira, any help would be appreciated. Where should i start writing the code, what should be done? Kindly help.

Hi @Mehvish Patel , welcome to the community.

I would suggest you create a Script field (GG > Script Fields) : 

Choose the template "Number field" and use this as inline script : 

def labels = issue.getLabels()
return labels == null ? 0 : labels.size()

Then configure the context and screens as with any other field to display it on the right project/screens by clicking the cog.

Hope that helps.
