Hi All,

I would like to copy select list field value(Parent) to text field(Sub-Task) using scriptlistener.

Event: Issue update.

Here is my script. Please help me on this.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import java.sql.Timestamp
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.IssueEvent
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

String productlist = "Product List"

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

 

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

def changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder()

Issue issue = event.issue

def product_list = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName(productlist)
def product_value = issue.getCustomFieldValue(product_list)
log.info("productList*****")
def product_line = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Product Line")

def change = event?.getChangeLog()?.getRelated("ChildChangeItem")?.find {it.field == "Product List"};

if (change) {

issue.getSubTaskObjects()?.findAll { it.issueType.name in ["Sub-task"]
def subtask = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueByCurrentKey(it.key)
def product_line = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Product Line")
issue.setCustomFieldValue(product_value)
log.info("productLinevalue*****")
product_line.updateValue(issue, subtask, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(product_line)), new DefaultIssueChangeHolder())
}

 

I'm getting below error. Please correct me.

Thanks,

Vamshi

Hi @Vamshi Krishna Challandula

For your requirement, you can try something like this:-

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

def issue = event.issue as MutableIssue

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.issueManager
def loggedInUser = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser

def region = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName('Region').first()
def sampleText = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName('Sample Text').first()

issue.setCustomFieldValue(sampleText, region.getValue(issue).toString())
issueManager.updateIssue(loggedInUser, issue, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED, false)

Please note, the sample working code above is not 100% exact to your environment. Hence, you will need to make the required modifications.

 

Below is a print screen of the Listener configuration:-

I also include a few test screens for your reference:-

1) First, when I create the issue, I select South America from the Region List.

2) Once the issue is created, as expected, the Sample Text field is updated with the value that was selected from the Region list, i.e. South America.

 

3) Next, I try to edit the issue and update the Region list to Asia.

4) As expected, the Sample Text field also updates its value to Asia.

For examples 3) and 4), I use the Edit dialog instead of inline-editing for more visibility.

Since this is using a Listener, you can also update the values directly using inline editing.

 

I hope this helps to answer your question.

 

Thank you and Kind Regards,

Ram
