Scriptrunner script to set select option field based on "isUserInGroup"

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to set an option in a select field if the reporter is in a specific group but I always get this error.

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot set property 'Segmentation' on null object

I tried multiple ways but always with a similar error. This is the latest version I have:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours
import groovy.transform.BaseScript

@BaseScript FieldBehaviours fieldBehaviours

def groupManager = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
def segment = getFieldById("Segmentation")
def reporter = issue.getReporter()

if (groupManager.isUserInGroup(reporter, "sales-segment-KIA"))
{
segment.setFormValue(13500)
}

Hello @Kevin Verheyden

The example is also about setting a specific option on the select list custom field, the code in the example will not a new option to the select list rather it will fetch the exact option object based on the option name you supply in the code

By set I mean select it not add an option.

Hello @Kevin Verheyden

To set the option, can you use optionsManager to get the list of option and then set the right option.
