Synthax for an expression to get the value for a custom field

Hendrik Dimter

I'm looking to fetch the value for a custom field variable, but my script keeps failing - I'm using the expression tester extension :-(

This is what I have:

issue.getAsString("customfield_10088")

In addition, I'm using this custom field across a project, not just a single issue. Would that change the above synthax?

Hi @Hendrik Dimter

Welcome to the community.

What is the error you are getting and which scripting language are you using?

Hi Fabian,

thank you for the Welcome!

I suppose this is javascript, I'm using this as a reference for my syntax:

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/jira-expressions-type-reference/

I wouldn't know one from the other to be honest (I'm not a developer).

I'm just trying to get Jira to fetch a custom field input value (for an email address) so I can use it within automation in order to send an email to that specific address.

Does that make sense?

Fabian Lim

If you are using jira automation you need to use smart values. Here is the reference guide: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/smart-values-general/

That works, thank you! I do have the challenge to reference this field project-wide, not issue-specific. I can't seem to f figure out how that would work - is that even possible?
