Compare a user to a group

CRS123456

Hello everyone,

I'll try to write a script with script runner in the Jira server.

I want to log in user has to check with the eRD-Leaders group and if the user exists the Project Plan field will be visible else Project Plan hide.

I wrote some codes but it's not working.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

getFieldByName('Project Plan Delivery Date').setDescription('Select the date that the Project Plan will be delivered to PMT. Less than 60 days')

def ProjectPlan = getFieldManager()

def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()

def group = ComponentAccessor.groupManager.getUserNamesInGroup("eRD-Leaders").contains("user")

if ((user) == (group))

{

return getFieldByName('Project Plan Delivery Date')

}

else

{

    getFieldByName('Project Plan Delivery Date').setHidden(true)

}

Your logic goes wrong at the point where you define the "user" and "group" variables.

There's nothing wrong with getting either of them, but you've not looked at what they will actually return.

The code you've got will return

user: a user object

group: a true or false value, not a list of users.  (true if the user is in the group)

So, your "if user == group" question is total nonsense.  You're comparing a user with a boolean true or false.

You don't need to do that, your "group" variable already contains a true or false, so you should be saying "if (group == true)" (you could shorthand that to "if (group)"

The other problem is the use of "user" - your "def group =" is not looking through the group for a user, it's looking for a string.  You need to change your "user =" to something that will get the user as a string, not a user object.
