How to get custom field value

[pamela guo]

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;

int sumCustomFieldValues( string customFieldId) {

int sum = 0;

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager();

CustomField customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(customFieldId);

if(issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)!=null){

sum = 1;

}

return sum;

}

sumCustomFieldValues("customfield_10003");

Question: This code works fine. Customfield_10003 is a select list, how can I get the selected value/Index?

I am using JIRA 5.1 download.

[Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist] · Accepted solution]

Option selectedVal = (Option) issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField);
String val = selectedVal.getValue();

Unfortunately, I tried your code, and val is null.

Option selectedVal = (Option) issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField);

String val = selectedVal.getValue();

[Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist]]

Do you have some value selected on the issue? And make sure the customfield is the select field itself.

[pamela guo]

Yes, I did select a value for it. The original code does not work either. TOO BAD

[pamela guo]

I can't make it work anyway. I am using a plug-in(Misc Custom Field) and create a Calculated Number Field. I tried to put those code inside this field description with below syntax:

<!-- @@Formula: formula goes here -->

This question was marked answered but it's not clear that it was actually answered. What was the solution?

[Tuğçe Şahin]

Option selectedVal = (Option) issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField);

String val = selectedVal.getValue();

which library should be used for Option?

[Roberto Gonzalez]

// gets a reference to the IssueManager and CustomFieldManager manager classes

final CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();

// gets a reference to the desired custom field

final CustomField customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("custom-field-name");

// retrieves the custom field value object from the issue

final Object customFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField);

// prints value to console

System.out.println("Custom field value: " + customFieldValue);

Your code does not work if there are several custom fields with same name in different projects and they do not share configuration.

Then use the field's ID (which is String) and call: com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(String)

Hi ,

How to create customfieldmanager for particular issue .

 i want to fetch the customfieldobject of particular issue

[Naren]

try using in the above code -

FieldConfig fieldConfig = customFieldManager.getRelevantConfig(issue);
List<Option> option = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager().findByOptionValue("option");

[pamela guo]

Thank you, Naren.

List<Option> option = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager().findByOptionValue("option");

But I still not get it. This will return a list of options. How can I get the selected option???
