Behaviour plugin: Show/Hide customfield in Create screen depending on the value of a cascading select list

Begoña Bonet

In creation screen I need to show or hide a customfield depending on the value selected by user in a cascading select list.

 

I've included this script but it doesn't works:

if(getActionName() == "Create" && getFieldByName("Área/Subárea").getValue()=="Proyectos,Proyectos menores"){

      getFieldByName("Es menor").setHidden(true);

    }

if(getActionName() == "Create" && getFieldByName("Área/Subárea").getValue()!="Proyectos,Proyectos menores"){

      getFieldByName("Es menor").setHidden(false);

    }      

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi Begona,

The cascading list value is an ArrayList with Options, therefore the .getValue() returns to you an ArrayList with the Option ids (as Strings). Below is an example of how to get the id and then through the optionManager to get the value for this id.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor


def optionManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager()
def optionMap = getFieldByName("Área/Subárea").getValue()
//this will give you the option id for the your first (parent) choice
def parentOptionId = optionMap?.getAt(0)
if(!parentOptionId)
 return
//this will give you the option id for the child choice
def childOptionId = optionMap?.getAt(1)
if(!childOptionId)
 return
// cast String to Long
def longValue = Long.valueOf(childOptionId).longValue()
// get the Option with the particular id
def option = optionManager.findByOptionId(longValue)
def optionValue = option.getValue()
//Now you have a String value for the parent Option that you can use in your equality checks
if(getActionName() == "Create" && optionValue=="Proyectos"){
 	getFieldByName("Es menor").setHidden(true);
}

Please let me know if you need further assistance

Kind regards
