Make field required based on another field on Jira cloud

Narsha Bac

Can we set a custom field mandatory based on a selected value of another field on Jira cloud via scriptrunner upon closure of an issue?

For e.g., I have a custom field (can be checkbox or dropdown) named 'Has caused a delay?'. When the value for this field is Yes, then another field 'Details' will become mandatory. If the field 'Has caused a delay?' is no, then the field 'Details' is not mandatory.

I know we can do this via scriptrunner, and I am new to coding. Can someone help on this please? 

Or if there is another way around to achieve this?

Hi @Narsha Bac and welcome to the community,

I found it more easy to use JMWE for such cases. You can add a workflow validator (Field Required Validator (JMWE app)) on your transition like the following:

Replace Agent Solution with Details and customfield_10177 with the id of your "Has caused a delay" customfield.
