You can use Jamie Echlin's script runner plugin. You might find the example code here helpful

Are you using a multi-user select field?

Govardan Krishn

Thanks for the response Bhushan, script in the link you provided is to create sub tasks and copy parent values to subtasks which i did already, but now i want to read/get selected values from multi select custom field and set sub tasks assignee based on it

Govardan Krishn

Yes i am using Multi User Picker field

Govardan Krishn

I was able to achieve this with below code, in case any one needed

cfStewards = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Stewards")

Collection<User> users= (Collection) issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfStewards);

if(users != null)
{
for(i in 0..users.size()-1)
{
Object AssigneeValue = users.get(i).getName();

issueObject = issueFactory.getIssue()
issueObject.setProject(issue.getProject())
issueObject.setIssueTypeId("10")
issueObject.setParentId(issue.getId())

issueObject.setSummary(issue.getSummary())
issueObject.setAssigneeId(AssigneeValue)

subTask = issueManager.createIssue(authenticationContext.getUser(), issueObject)
subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issue.getGenericValue(), subTask, authenticationContext.getUser())
i++
}

}

Do you add this to the post function after you have the field filled in with the users?

is "Stewards" the name of your field?

Anything else I would need to set to customize it for my setup?

Govardan Krishn

Yes, you have to add it to the post funtion, this will run after you filled in users.

In order to work for you, you need to set correct sub task issue type id..

issueObject.setIssueTypeId("10") --- check this ID in your database for correct sub task issue type id
