Get the value of hidden fields with preset value in request form using JIRA behaviour.

Harsh_v2xlv7

Hello Community, @Hana Kučerová 

I am trying to set a behavior by getting a value of custom field (which is hidden and has a preset value, in customer form), but sadly unable to achieve the same.

I have a custom field - location which is hidden and the value is preset to say 'ABC' for a request type.

I want to achieve that for all the request type which have location set to 'ABC', certain fields should be visible in customer request form, else if location is not ABC then dont show up in request form.

my code is - 

def customfield = getFieldbyID("customfield_12")

def cfval = customfield.getvalue()  {also tried cfval = customfield.getvalue()  as string}

if (cfval == ABC) {

desciption.setHidden(false)

.

.

.

}

else true

 

Can you suggest if this is the correct approach.

Thanks!

Maybe like this:

 

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

def name = user.displayName

 

if (getActionName() == "Create") {

    def customfield = getFieldById("customfield_12")

    def customfieldToBeHidden = getFieldById("customfield_34")

    def cfval = customfield.getValue()

 

    if (cfval == "ABC") {

        customfieldToBeHidden.setHidden(true)

    } else {

        return null

    }

}

This would work on the "create" form and should be added to the "initialiser" section in your form. 

 

Good luck, I hope it does the job.
