Hi Nic
Thanks for this example. This works perfectly for the standardfield labels.
But I have a customfield type label which I have to update.
Have you a hint how I can reference my customfield?
Many thanks for your help.
Roman

hi all

i figured this out with the help of someone but can someone explain why we have to use print for this to work my code is below

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.label.LabelManager

def user = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.getUser()

def summary = issue.summary
print(summary)

if (summary.startsWith("[test]"))
{
LabelManager labelManager = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(LabelManager)
def labels = labelManager.getLabels(issue.id).collect{it.getLabel()}
def newlabel = summary.split(" ")[1]
print(newlabel)
labels += newlabel
labelManager.setLabels(user.getDirectoryUser(),issue.id,labels.toSet(),false,false)
}
