How do do you clear a value from a custom field using scriptrunner in a post function?

Question

I am having trouble finding a script example to clear a custom field during a post function in transition.

Basically, I have a cfValue that will have a value in one step, but during a specific transition, I want that value to now be null.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Melissa

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- ,

I am getting the following errors

unable to resolve class ModifiedValue 
 @ line 1, column 39.
   customFieldX.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldX), ""),changeHolder)

@Melissa McConnell , were you able to resolve this as Nic said?

To clear a custom field in a script, set the value to be empty.  My notes say

customFieldX.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldX), ""),changeHolder)

Thanks - I'm needing to do this without a plugin.
