Scriptruner: how to get project lead in workflow condition with an expression?

Charlie Misonne

Hi Atlassian Community!

I wonder how I can get the project lead of an issue in a workflow condition with scriptrunner. I know scriptrunner only supports expressions and no API calls in conditions in Jira Cloud.
But I'm unable to fetch the project lead. My goal is to only allow a certain transition by the project lead.

I tried this and other variants but none of them work

user.accountId == project.lead.accountId

Any help is appreciated!

Hi @Charlie Misonne

It seems that "lead" property is not supported in expressions. And there is no way shown in doc.

Hi Charlie,

It looks like this was covered by a different post: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/solved-Set-Project-Lead-with-Groovy-Script-Runner/qaq-p/1322400. Cheers!

Hi Joshua,

Thanks for your answer but that post applies for Jira server and the Jira Cloud scripts are totally different.

Charlie Misonne

Thanks for your answer. Indeed it's not in the docs so I'm hoping someone in the Community has a workaround.

I simply want to restrict a transition for the project lead. Sounds easy but on Cloud it's not...

I'm going to try it with JMWE instead

David Fischer

@Charlie Misonne it won't work either, since JMWE, just like ScriptRunner and any other Cloud app, can only use Jira Expressions for Conditions and Validators.

A bit late to the party :-)
But I was looking for the same thing.
I found this worked as a Validator:

user.getProjectRoles(project).map(p => p.name).includes("Project Lead")

Hi Bert,

Thanks for bringing this topic back up.

In the meantime my feature request has been resolved and the project lead is available via expressions according to the documentation.

I haven't tested it to be honest.
