How to pop up alert box which contains new custom field based on the value of another field in Jira

Question

Hi ,

I need some help with setting a field.

I have 2 'Multi Select List' custom fields say Field1 and Field2.

I want to pop up new field only when  'Field1= option a' and 'Field2= option p'

Currently I am able to get new field ( of type radio button) on create issue screen right below the 'Field1' and 'Field2' when the condition is met.

But I want to know if new field can be displayed as pop up ( for example alert window) instead of displaying field on create issue screen ?

If yes, Please let me know how we can achieve this ?

Thanks

Sushmitha

Hi @Sushmitha Try this please: AJS.toInit(function() { var field1 = AJS.$("#customfield_10000"); // replace 10000 with the ID of Field1 var field2 = AJS.$("#customfield_10001"); // replace 10001 with the ID of Field2 var popup = AJS.$(""); var customField = AJS.$(""); // replace 10002 with the ID of the custom field you want to display in the pop-up // function to check if the specified options are selected function checkFields() { if (field1.val() == "option a" && field2.val() == "option p") { // replace "option a" and "option p" with the values of the options you want to check customField.appendTo(popup); popup.show(); } else { popup.hide(); } } // bind the checkFields function to the change event of Field1 and Field2 field1.change(checkFields); field2.change(checkFields); });

Hi @Oday Rafeh ,

Thanks for your response.

Do you have any sample scripts that I can use for writing JavaScript code to display a pop-up with the desired custom field when the user selects the specified options in Field1 and Field2 ?

Hi @Sushmitha ,

From my information, Jira didn't support this functionality.

One possible workaround could be to create a custom web panel that will be displayed as a popup when the conditions are met. You can write a small JavaScript code to display a pop-up with the desired custom field when the user selects the specified options in Field1 and Field2.

Another approach could be to use a third-party app or plugin that provides popup alerts or notifications based on Jira custom fields. You can search for Jira apps in the Atlassian Marketplace.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

Regards,

Oday
