Get first value ever of a select list field for an issue

Mihai Mihai

Hello,

 

Using Scriptrunner, we would like to create either a scripted field or a listener that will set in a single select list field the first value that was ever set on another single select list field.

How could I get the first value ever used on an issue for a specific field?

 

Thank you!

Use a changHistoryManager to get all the changeHistory objects for the issue, searching them for changes to the field.  If none are found, the current value is the first use, but if you do find some changes of the field, use the changeHistory that contains the change of field with the earliest date.
