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; } } }

Remove the .0 from numbers when coping them to another field.

Hello,

I have a number field that I need to be copied to a text field. I use Automation fro Jira for this.

Jira always adds a .0 when I use {{issue.customfield_0000}}.

I have tried

And none of them work,

{{issue.customfield_00000.remove((.0))}} works if it is from text field to text field.

Any idea of the correct syntax?

Thanks

If the fields are numeric, then the problem is not the extract and copy, it's the display format of the field. There's nothing you can do about that in the automation, you'll need to look at the field display settings.

Hi @Lara Lopez Garcia

With automation for Jira, you could use a math expression to round() or floor() the value to the nearest integer, or you could use the format command to only include the integer part:

Hello Nic,

Only the first field is numeric, the second one is a text field.

That would explain it. You're taking a numeric value which is a number and has nothing to say about how it is displayed and converting it to a string and the conversion code is assuming that because a number could be fractional, it's putting a .x on the end to show that.

issue.customfield_00000.replaceAll("([0-9])"."")

doesn't do anything because the source custom field does not have a .0 in it - it's a number, not a string. You need to do the replacement *after* converting to a string.

Thanks Bill, but none of them worked .

Interesting... I rechecked and all of those functions work as documented for me. Please note that for format() you need to provide a format string, such as .format("#")

And, I noted you are using Server version, so let's try this syntax:

{{#=}}FLOOR({{issue.customfield_18986}}){{/}}

I've found a similar problem.

In my case, copying a numeric field into a text field, adds extra position by the right, showing E11 value (which was eleven zeros)

Using Floor conversion caused the same extra position by the right.

I share the syntax has fixed the problem and has worked in my case:

{{issue.customfield_18986.format("###") }}

Simply run an automation and edit the field with {{issue.fieldname.replace(".0","")}}
