How to set form value for checkbox field with Scriptrunner/Behaviour

[flaimo]

I have implemented a custom field with two checkboxes in JIRA. Now I would like to use a behaviour to set some of the checkboxes to true when an issue is created. How des the script have to look like? The documentation under the script field only shows an example for a string value, but not for checkboxes.

I tried something like this, which didn't work:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FormField
import org.apache.log4j.Category

//if (!underlyingIssue?.created) {  
 FormField target_audience = getFieldById("customfield_11335")
 target_audience.setFormValue(["Checkbox A":"Yes"]) // "Checkbox A"
 //target_audience.setFormValue([10719]) // "Checkbox B"
//}

See https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/recipes/behaviours/setting-default-fields.html#_setting_defaults_for_selects_etc

The example for multi-selects works for checkboxes, as it mentions.
