Unable to add data to my custom field options

Question

Hi ,

I have a list of 3000 records and trying to add to a custom field but the values are not populating .Custom field is a label.

def populateCustomField(List carIDAppList){
def projectMgr = ComponentAccessor.getProjectManager() as CachingProjectManager;
IssueContextImpl issueContext = getIssueContext() as IssueContextImpl;
//IssueContextImpl issueContext = IssueContextImpl.getIssueContext() as IssueContextImpl;
def customeFieldMgr = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager() as CachingCustomFieldManager
def customeField = customeFieldMgr.getCustomFieldObject(customFieldId);
FieldConfig fieldConfig = customeField.getRelevantConfig(issueContext);
def optManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager() as DefaultOptionsManager;
OptionsImpl optionsImpl = optManager.getOptions(fieldConfig) as OptionsImpl;

List<Option> lists = new ArrayList();
Long opId = 1L;
carIDAppList.each {
 if (optionsImpl.getOptionForValue(it.toString(), null) == null) {
 Option option = optManager.createOption(fieldConfig, null, opId, it.toString());
 opId += 1L;
 lists.add(option);
 }

}
if (lists.size() > 0) {
 optManager.updateOptions(lists);
}
}

sorry it's not a label , it's a select list (multiple choices) and converted to a search bar .

When i tried with 30 records it was loaded .Initially it was a  stand alone groovy script and then converted to a groovy class not sure if that's the issue.

class CarIDAppData extends FieldBehaviours {

static void main(String[] args) {
 CarIDAppData st = new CarIDAppData();
 carIDAppList =st.processCarIDdata()
 st.populateCustomField(carIDAppList);

}

There's two problems here:

* Label fields do not take "options", they take "label" objects.  
* Label fields do not have a list of options, you have to add new labels to issues.
