Scriptrunner: get cascading list value then set single select value

Laura S

Hi, I'm using Jira Software Server: 8.5.0 and Scriptrunner: 6.15.0. On the create issue post-function, I want to read a cascading select list parent value (first value) and based on that value set a single select list value.

     Cascading select list: "Area Affected"
     Parent: Electrical    Child: 1, 2, 3    e.g. Electrical - 1, Electrical - 2
     Parent: Facilities     Child: A, B, C   e.g. Facilities - A, Facilities - B
     Parent: Other         Child: X, Y, Z

     Single select list: "Team"     Options: redTeam, blueTeam, greenTeam

     When submitter chooses Electrical - whatever, Team automatically sets to redTeam

I'm stuck on getting just the parent value. Examples I've found are only snippets or outdated and no longer function. I found this code and got it to work (temporarily hard coded an issue for easy troubleshooting):

     import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
     import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
     import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
     import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField

     def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
     MutableIssue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("REQ-32")

     if(issue){
     def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
     def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName("Area Affected")
     def cFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField[0])

     return cFieldValue
    }

Console Result: [null:Facilities, 1:A]

But I can't figure out how to adjust the code to break out the parent/child values. Adding this (and other variations with maps, etc.) hasn't worked:

     import com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.view.CustomFieldParams
     import com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.option.Option

     CustomFieldParams params = (CustomFieldParams) cFieldValue;

     if (params != null) {
     Object parent = params.getFirstValueForNullKey();
     Object child = params.getFirstValueForKey("1");

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Eventually, once I get the parent value, I'll set the single select list:

     // Set single select list = Facilities
     if (parent == ["Facilities"]) {
     def cfSelect =     ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName("Team")
     def cfConfig = cfSelect.getRelevantConfig(issue)
     def newValue = ComponentAccessor.optionsManager.getOptions(cfConfig)?.find {
it.toString() == 'redTeam'
}
     issue.setCustomFieldValue(cfSelect, newValue)
}

Thanks in advance.

Thanks to this answer, I was able to solve the problem.  Here are all the steps and all code:

Cog, Issues, Workflows, select a workflow, Edit, Diagram, select the create transition line (first line), Post Functions, Add post function, Script Post-Function [ScriptRunner], Add, Custom script post-function, Note: get cascading list parent to set single select list, Inline script:

import com.atlassian.event.api.EventListener
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.AbstractIssueEventListener
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.IssueEvent
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import org.apache.log4j.Logger

def cfNameCascading = "Area Affected"

IssueManager issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
// MutableIssue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("REQ-32")

/** Get the CF objects**/
CustomField cfCascading = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName(cfNameCascading)

/** Get Area Affected cascading Field values (map) **/
Map cfVal = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfCascading) as Map
if (cfVal) {
String valFirst = cfVal.get(null);
// String valSecond = cfVal.get("1");
// List allValues = cfVal.values() as List;

/** Set Team single select list **/
def cfSelect = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Team")
def cfConfig = cfSelect.getRelevantConfig(issue)

if (valFirst == "Electrical") {
def newValue = ComponentAccessor.optionsManager.getOptions(cfConfig)?.find {it.toString() == 'redTeam'}
issue.setCustomFieldValue(cfSelect, newValue)
}
else if (valFirst == "Facilities") {
def newValue = ComponentAccessor.optionsManager.getOptions(cfConfig)?.find {it.toString() == 'blueTeam'}
issue.setCustomFieldValue(cfSelect, newValue)
}
else if (valFirst == "Other") {
def newValue = ComponentAccessor.optionsManager.getOptions(cfConfig)?.find {it.toString() == 'greenTeam'}
issue.setCustomFieldValue(cfSelect, newValue)
}
