JIRA groovy (script runner): Check if the CF field is required

Question

Hello,

How do I check if the custom field is required?

Peter Bengov · Answer

Hey ET

If you are interested in making this test while the ticket was already created, you can add the following script to your workflow Validator.

cfValues['Your Field Name']!=null

If you are looking to make a field mandatory from ticket creation - follow Joao's answer.

Hey there!

You can check if it's required by going into your Field Configurations settings page under JIRA's Administration panel, then clicking on your scheme. You'll see a REQUIRED flag right next to the field's name, like shown below.
