How to capture date/time based on field values

Question

Hi Team,

New field to capture the following

We need to capture the date/time that a particular issue type ticket Sprint value changes to either Community | In Process' OR 'Non-Community - Prioritized'.

We have JMWE , JSU and Script runner addons.

Thanks!

ScriptRunner is your best option. You can look at the change history to get the change item for that specific field and the time the change occured.

The second answer has a bit of code you may be able to modify.

Hi @jira_admin_cu

You can use an event based action to react to changes to the Sprint field, adding a condition to check the Sprint value, and a Set Field Value post function to set the date time field value to the current date/time.
