nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Is there anyway in ScriptRunner to limit a behavior to the Jira Edit function only?

I want a user to be able to enter information into a 'business value' field but not edit that field after the initial entry.

I have set up a behavior that restricts entry to the field except when 'current user is in group a'. However, I want any user in the project who enters a jira issue of that type to be able to input the initial data into the field. I just do not want them to be able to edit it after initial save.

You can use getActionName()

if(getActionName() == 'Create' || userIsInGroup){
   field.setReadOnly(false)
} else {
   field.setReadOnly(true)
}

Thank you for this. I am still struggling. I am not technical. Below is the xml that was created by the Scriptrunner addon when I set this up to restrict access to the field except when current users is a particular group. I want it to do this but only restrict when the function is edit.

I am not sure how to get that statement above into the xml that the interface created as it is not in what looks to be an xml format.

Inf the "fields" configuration for the behavior, select the correct workflow for your project.

Then, against your custom field that you want to be read-only, click the "add new condition" and select Except and Workflow Action = Create (1).

What this will do is make the field read-only except when the user is in 1-RTE or when the screen is the create screen.

If you need more complex conditional rules, then you would need to click the "Add server-side script" and write some script code that can control the behavior rules. But I think with your current example, with just 2 "Except" condition, you can manage without any code.
