Copying value assignee field in custom field

Alexander_udh0is

Hi!
I try run this script:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

MutableIssue issue
Issue issueIM = issue
CustomField technolog = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("name customfield")

def value_a = technolog.getValue(issue)
def assignee = issue.getAssigneeId()

if(value_a == null ||value_a == ""){
technolog.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(null, assignee), new DefaultIssueChangeHolder())
}
else {
issue.setAssignee((ApplicationUser)value_a)
}

We need the assignee field value to be copied to the custom field in case the custom field is empty.
But script don't work.

Hello @Alexander

This is not right in your code

def value_a = technolog.getValue(issue)

To get the customfield value you should use issue.getCustomFieldValue

def value_a = issue.getCustomFieldValue(technolog)

Also, to update issues you should always use IssueService

Hi @Tarun Sapra
Thanks for your reply
If a custom field has a value, the Assignee field accepts it.
However, the Assignee field does not take a custom field value.
I guess error in this line:
technolog.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(null, assignee), new DefaultIssueChangeHolder())
Error log:
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser at com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.impl.UserCFType.getDbValueFromObject(UserCFType.java:83) at com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.impl.AbstractSingleFieldType.createValue(AbstractSingleFieldType.java:138) at com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.ImmutableCustomField.createValue(ImmutableCustomField.java:693) at com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.ImmutableCustomField.updateValue(ImmutableCustomField.java:410) at com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.ImmutableCustomField.updateValue(ImmutableCustomField.java:396) at com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.OrderableField$updateValue.call(Unknown Source) at Script1176.run(Script1176.groovy:20)

Sorry, I'm new to this.
