Hide Custom Field from View Screen

Darin Hafer

How can I set set a custom field to be "Hidden" from the View Screen when the Issue has a certain Status or Statuses?

I have the CustomField object by calling:

ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12501")

But I see no method to hide the field.

Hello,

You would need a plugin for it. For example, you could use the Power Scripts add-on:

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/43318/power-scripts-jira-script-automation?hosting=cloud&tab=overview

You could create a live field with a code like this:

if(status == "Closed") {

    lfHide("customfield_100001");

}

100001 is the id of your custom field.

Thank you Alexey. I installed the plugin on a test environment. I have one Live Field and two post-functions.

Neither of them hide or show the field I specify.

The live field does exactly what your code does above but I changed the value to match my custom field.

The two post-functions are set up, one on one transition to "hide", and the other on another transition to "show". My guess is there's no need for the two post-function sil scripts if I do it in a livefield, but I'm trying whatever I can.

So I'm trying to use logPrint() to try to debug my "livefield" config. Nothing appears in the jira log. So I added the package to the logging. Still no debug and field never hides.

You do not have to create post functions. You need to create this script and attach this script to the live field.

I already have that:

Still nothing in the logs.
