get value from selected customfield

[Olivera Tancheva]

I am trying to compare a value from a multiselect customfield. i did the following code:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
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.user.util.UserManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.util.UserMessageUtil

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();
def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager();
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12032");
def cFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField);

if (cFieldValue.toString() == "Business Trips")
{
    UserMessageUtil.error('Please select project.')
}

But the code only works when I put cFieldValue.toString() == "None". I can't seem to figure out why it doesn't work for the other options.

After accessing an issue from a search results, I prefer to grab a new copy of the issue. The issue object in the results is not complete and not suitable for all typical operations:

Try:

thisissue = issueManager.getIssueObject(it.id)

But then, I'm not clear how you expect to get a "status.status.name" from a custom field...

Custom fields contain either String text of Option object.

You can get the issue's status with "thisissue.status.name"

Or you can get the selected option's label with "thisissue.getCustomFieldValue(CF2).value"

But the problem is neither "it" nor "thisissue" with him. The problem is with
status = thisissue.getCustomFieldValue(CF2)
Which for every subsequent issue returns the same value anyway
As if the .getCustomFieldValue(CF2) function doesn't respond to changing the issue

Hi @Dawid Skowron , it is weird... I didn't find any documentation to "any" function which would say that it stops when the first entry causes true result or anything like that. But the true is that I always use "each" function when traversing a collection of the objects.

Can you try to log the value of thisissue, please?

thisissue = it
log.error(thisissue)

or simply use each instead of  any ?

[PD Sheehan]

I think this is the most relevant documentation that covers the any method: https://groovy-lang.org/groovy-dev-kit.html#_manipulating_lists

But you are correct, this stops the loop as soon a "truthy" element terminates the closure. each or collect may be more appropriate in this case.

thisissue returns me the correct issue value in the loop problem is with thisissue.getCustomFieldValue(CF2).value

@Dawid Skowron can you try to reindex the MP project? If you updated the value in custom field by other script and didn't use proper method, it can be the cause of the problem... and please, use threads on the community correctly. Now we have 2 real answers here, but another 2 "answers" are yours :)

log.error(thisissue.toString())
