Need modified by field JQL using scriptunner

Garden16__h3vuuz

Need user name for the custom 'Modified By' field when ever the Test case is modified.

The user who modifies a test case is captured. How do I use lastupdated function in JIRA scriptrunner

I'm sorry, I do not understand the question.

It sounds like you want to read a field from some issues, but JQL is about finding issues, not reading fields, so I'm lost on that. And what "user name" part of the "modified by" - which field are you actually interested in and which user name?

Use of SRs lastupdated function is documented at https://docs.adaptavist.com/sr4js/latest/get-started/tutorials/jql-functions-tutorial near the bottom of the page.

I have a field by name Modified By . Any time the test issue type is updated or edited. The Modified by field should display the persons name who modified it.

Looking for solutions using script runner.

Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

So nothing to do with JQL or searching.

You could write a scripted field to drag it out of the history and comments, or you could write a listener to pick up all the change events (edit, assign, comment, transition, etc) and populate the field with the person who triggered the event.

Please share scripted field code

A similar code is mentioned here:

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Updating-a-custom-field-from-a-script-listener/qaq-p/759053

As @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- mentioned you can tweak the code by getting the logged in user and setting the 'modifed by' custom field. You can get the logged in user by:

def LoggedInUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()

Hope that helps.
