How can I resolve the issue in ScriptRunner behaviour where null values in the payload lead to error

Question

Hi All,

How can I resolve the issue in ScriptRunner behaviour where null values in the payload lead to errors when using functions like getValue, formvalue?

What steps should be taken to ensure proper initialization and population of payload data in the initializer script to prevent empty or null issue objects?

Please find attached a screenshot from the ScriptRunner behavior screen. This screenshot illustrates an issue where null values in the payload are causing errors when using functions like getValuegetValue,

*UI Create form('Test plan'-->customfield_10627--> multi issue picker)

*Scriptrunner behaviour initiliser script payload

Initiliser script:-

Additionally, it's worth noting that the current ScriptRunner version being used is 8.3.0, which may not be up to date. Kindly inform me if any similar bugs have been reported for this version.

Hi @Ram Kumar Aravindakshan _Adaptavist_ ,

Thank you for your reply.

I am looking to set default values for a database picker field within the test execution creation form.

In my scenario, I create test executions from a test plan issue. When a user clicks on the 'Create Test Execution' button, it opens a form where the database picker field is present.

I want this field to inherit default values from the corresponding field in the test plan issue type, which is essentially the underlying issue of this create form."

When trying to achieve this requirement in ScriptRunner Behaviour, I encounter the following issues: I am unable to obtain the underlying issue ID. Therefore, I pursued an alternative approach: within the creation form, there is a field labeled 'Test Plan'. The ID of the underlying issue is automatically populated there. However, I am still unable to retrieve that issue ID from the creation form.

"When trying to achieve this requirement in ScriptRunner Behaviour, I encounter the following issues: Neither retrieving the underlying issue ID nor fetching values from custom fields is working as expected. All attempts result in obtaining 'Null' values."

I hope I explain my requirement pretty well here
