How do I restrict currentUser in a specific group?

[Teja]

On the close transition button I wanted add validation if the currentuser is in 'QA100' group
prevent user to do the transtion.

else proceed....

How to do that

[Alexander Richter · Accepted solution]

if you have the scriptrunner AddOn, you can use a scripted validator

maybe like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
def groupManager = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
groupManager.isUserInGroup(currentUser, 'QA100') == false

this should return 'true' if the currentUser is not in the group 'QA100' and the validation will be passed.

Another Option would be to use a condition instead of validator.

Indeed, a validator is the wrong place for this - you'll give the user an ugly and frustrating error when they try do something.  A condition would hide the transition from them so they'd simply not be able to do it.

It worked...Thank you very much Alexander
