Project Automation JSON script Error

Dolly Kirubavathi

I have this JSON script under Additional Fields in Project Automation (for Cloning project):

{
"update": {
"labels": [{
"add": "cloned"
}],
"fields": [{
"customfield_12903": "{{triggerIssue.customfield_12903}}"
}],
"issuelinks": [{
"add": {
"type": {
"name": "Cloners"
},
"outwardIssue": {
"key": "{{issue.key}}"
}
}
}]
}
}

 

 

When I try to publish the rule, I get this error:

Additional fields contains invalid field(s) in 'update' or 'fields' section: fields

 

the customfield_12903 is present in both projects.

Hi @Dolly Kirubavathi 

What is the type of your customfield_12903? The syntax you are trying works for a plain text field, so if it is something else please check the examples in the documentation for any missing attributes: https://confluence.atlassian.com/automation/advanced-field-editing-993924663.html

You also appear to have some extra square brackets for the "fields" section, and your "issuelinks" should be in the "update" section rather than stand-alone.  Perhaps try this:

 

{
  "update": {
    "labels": [ { "add": "cloned" } ],
  "issuelinks": [ { "add": {
      "type": { "name": "Cloners" },
      "outwardIssue": { "key": "{{issue.key}}" }
      } } ]
  },
  "fields": {
    "customfield_12903": "{{triggerIssue.customfield_12903}}"
  }
}

 

Kind regards,
Bill
