Jira filter "not empty" returns empty field issues

Dear,

I have a custom field that returns a string or a null value.

When I use that custom field in a search " CustomField is not EMPTY " I'm also receiving the issues where that field is 'null'.

Could this be a bug, or do I need to return a different value to be "EMPTY" ?

The code

Regards
Karel.

Did you run a reindex after entering the script? If it's only for a specific project you can use the built in reindex script.

The comment from Henning solved the problem. Just had to reindex.

Thx for the feedback guys !

This script always returns null for the field value. Is that intended?

But yes, agree with Henning. You can reindex just one project or even one issue for testing purposes
