Remove option from Select list custom field using behaviour

Dan27

Hi,

I know how can I choose specific options of custom field and display only them using Behaviour,

But I have a custom field that is dynamic and I can't put hardcoded data in my script.

How can I remove an option from this custom field (Select List single choice) using behaviours?

Thank you,

Daniel

I believe your Select List Custom field options are static ( as defined in Jira configuration ) . No matter the dynamic nature of the field , you would need to list down the options always to show up for that field based on some kind of criteria/inputs (like value from other CF, any other condition..)

For example , below code will display the options only if they match a regex pattern . There can be also conditions like showing/removing an option based on the currentUser.

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours
import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FormField

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def optionsManager = ComponentAccessor.optionsManager

def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName("Custom Field")[0]
def fieldConfig = customField.getRelevantConfig(underlyingIssue)
def options = optionsManager.getOptions(fieldConfig)

def optionsList = []

FormField CF = getFieldByName("Custom Field")

// You need to design the regex or your conditions as required
def regex = "Option-.*"

options.each {
if ( it ==~ /$regex/){
optionsList.add{it}
}
}
def optionsToSet = options.findAll { it.value in optionsList }
CF.setFieldOptions(optionsToSet)

options.each {

optionsList.add{it}
}
}
def optionsToSet = options.findAll { it.value in optionsList }
CF.setFieldOptions(optionsToSet)

Okay,

So there is an option take all of the options using script, not hardcoded, withoud the specific option we would like to remove?

Thank you!

// Getting list of all option

// Iterate over all the options you get and if it's not matching with one you don't want , put it in a temp list and set the temp list as your options in the end .

options.each {
if ( it != "I don't want this option"){
optionsList.add(it)
}
}
def optionsToSet = options.findAll { it.value in optionsList }
CF.setFieldOptions(optionsToSet)

def optionsList = []
// Iterate over all the options you get and if it's not matching with one you don't want , put it in a temp list and set the temp list as your options in the end .
