I would like to get a select case (switch) groovy script working inside of JETI for outgoing emails

Question

I am trying to get a groovy script working in a custom outgoing email template.  I need to use a select case because the initial project was built using a single select instead of a cascading select.  Changing the project is not an option.  Therefore, I have to use a switch statement to match the needed values.  I'm using the Jira Email This Issue add-on (JETI). My code is below.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
MutableIssue issue = issue

def $meetingIDField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Meeting ID")
def $meetingID = issue.getCustomFieldValue($meetingIDField)

def $meetingLink
 switch($meetingID) {
  case 1234567890: $meetingLink = 'https://my/room1'; break;
  case 9876543210: $meetingLink = 'https://my/room2'; break;
  case 1234543210: $meetingLink = 'https://my/room3'; break;
  default: $meetingLink = '';}

if($meetingLink != null){
return $meetingLink
}

Hello Ivan, Your solution looks good. However, changing the actual project fields was not an option. Therefore, I was able to get the result I needed by Writing the following code in the Html Edit Velocity Markup and it works well.

#set($meetingID = $issue.getCustomFieldValue("customfield_12345").toString()) #if( $meetingID == '2222222222')

1. Create a scripted field which would return a link depending on your meetingId value.

2. Use your scripted field's value in your email template.
