Postfunction condition based on label custom field returning a null value

Aileen_pj2ao9

I have this postfunction script that creates a subtask and then assigns the subtask to different users depending on what is entered in a label custom field.

However it keeps failing, with the cfValue returning null.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.label.LabelManager
import org.apache.log4j.Category

def issueId = issue.getId()

def Category log = Category.getInstance("com.onresolve.jira.groovy.PostFunction")
log.setLevel(org.apache.log4j.Level.DEBUG) 
log.debug "debug: Assign sub-task"

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10284")
def cfValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField) as String

if(("labelstring") in cfValue){
    issue.setAssigneeId("person1")
    log.info ("Custom field value: " + cfValue)
    }

else
{ issue.setAssigneeId("person2")
log.info ("Custom field value: " + cfValue)
log.info ("Custom field: " + customField)}

(I'm leaving the logging in there).

I tried this way too:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.label.LabelManager
import org.apache.log4j.Category

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10284").getIdAsLong()
def Category log = Category.getInstance("com.onresolve.jira.groovy.PostFunction")
def labelMgr = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(LabelManager)
def labelValue = labelMgr.getLabels(issue, customField)

log.setLevel(org.apache.log4j.Level.DEBUG) 
log.debug "debug: Assign sub-task"

if(("somelabel") in labelValue){
    issue.setAssigneeId("person1")
    log.info ("Custom field value: " + labelValue)
    }

else
{ issue.setAssigneeId("person2")
log.info ("Custom field value: " + labelValue)}

The custom field is returning, just not the value. Not sure if custom label fields require a different method?

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.label.LabelManager

Issue issue = issue
def parentId = issue.getParentId()

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10284").getIdAsLong()
def labelMgr = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(LabelManager)
def labelValue = labelMgr.getLabels(parentId, customField)

for (String label : labelValue) {
if (!label.toLowerCase().contains("text")){
issue.setAssigneeId("person1")}
else {
issue.setAssigneeId("person2")}
}
if (issue.assigneeId == null) { 
issue.setAssigneeId("person2")}

Its a bit weird, but works. The issue was that I was pulling the label value from the subtask, not the parent issue.

The error is due to the fact that custom field of type Label returns a list instead of a string.

Please see here

From the comments in the above link

<span>customer_list = (List</span><span><</span><span>Option</span><span>>)</span> <span>issue.getCustomFieldValue(custom_field)</span><span>;</span>

Thanks for the input @Tarun Sapra!

I've seen the second one, but it didn't work for me, see below. The first also through an error (List<Option>) could not resolve class "Option" haha. But now I know the label object value returns a list so thats something. Thanks !

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
Script351.groovy: 16: unexpected token: ? @ line 16, column 53.
   tCustomFieldValue(customField)?*.label

You have to import the Option class.
