Show/Hide a field on the create screen with scriptrunner behaviour

Nguyen Tran

I have 2 custom fields named "Contract type" and "Legal Reviewer" where "Contract type" is a single choice select list (2 options: Template, Non-template) and "Legal Reviewer" is a single user picker.

Currently "Legal Reviewer" is set as hidden. I want to show it when user choose "Non-template" for "Contract type" on the create screen.

Here's my attempt:

def fieldToHide = getFieldByName("Legal Reviewer")
def contractCf = getFieldByName("Contract type")
def optionValue = contractCf.getValue().toString()


fieldToHide.setHidden(true)

if (optionValue == 'Non-template') {
 fieldToHide.setHidden(false)
}

There are no errors shown but the script doesn't work. When I choose "Non-template" the field "Legal Reviewer" doesn't show up. Any idea what I did wrong here? Thanks in advance.

You need to add the Contract type field to your behaviour and define the script in your question for the added field. Right now I guess you defined the script for the whole behaviour.

I think you need to specify the issue when getting a custom field value.

Something like:

customField.getValue(issue)

I want to do this when user is creating the issue. So on the Create screen user would select option for the custom field and the hidden field will show up or hidden according to the selected option. Would the value for "issue" be there if the issue is not created?

Where are you running this script?

Is it as a post function? If it is then it will only execute once the transition occurres.

Maybe you could write a validation script, to only accept the value based on the first field's value?

See below comment from Alexey.

Missunderstood the question. You need to configure behaviors.

Nguyen Tran

You're right. I just need to move the script to the behaviour for Contract Type field. Thanks!

Initializer fires only once, when a screen is loaded. Server Side script for a field fires everytime, when the value of the field changed.

Got it! Thanks for the clear response.
