making field mandatory when one specific component is selected

arathi.gopinath

While creating one issue in a project I want to make a field mandatory when I select the component as "Laptop Purchase". I have tried the code as below, but didn't work for me. import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessordef optionsManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager()def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()def Laptoppurchase = getFieldById("customfield_29690")if (issue.components.name.contains("Laptop Purchase")) { Laptoppurchase.setRequired(true)} else { Laptoppurchase.setRequired(false) } Please help me here.

You can do this with following behaviours script:

import com.atlassian.jira.bc.project.component.ProjectComponent

def components = getFieldById(getFieldChanged())

def isLaptopPurchase = components.value?.any { ProjectComponent component ->
    component.name == "Laptop Purchase"
}

def laptopPurchase = getFieldByName("Laptop Purchase")

if (isLaptopPurchase) {
    laptopPurchase.setRequired(true)
} else {
    laptopPurchase.setRequired(false)
}

You'll need to attach this as a server-side validator script to the "Components" field.

Every time there is a change to the components field this will get triggered and check if the component "Laptop Purchase" has been selected. If so the other field will be marked as required.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

you can write a validator for the task and use it during the 'Create' transition.

The following code will check, if a component named "Laptop Purchase" is used and will mark the field "customfield_29690" as required.

import com.opensymphony.workflow.InvalidInputException

def currentComponents = issue.getComponents()

for (c in currentComponents) {
 if (c.getName() == "Laptop Purchase") {
  invalidInputException = new InvalidInputException("customfield_29690", "This field is required!")
 }
}
