how to get a user custom field email address through script runner ?

mel vega January 25, 2016

Hi,

I set up a "send custom email script" post function via script runner and I would like to add the sender's email address in the signature of the email.

the sender refers to a user picker custom field. I created a scripted field to be able to get the email address to display it in the email.

In the scripted field, I wrote the following script :

import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

return issue.getEmailAddress("Change Request Owner Assignee")

I know something's missing but I did not manage to figure out the problem. i tried with String X= fieldX.getEmailAddress but in vain.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot

Hi mel

In the "CC issue fields" field you can add the id of your user picker custom field, you can find it <baseUrl>/rest/api/2/field, it should be something like customfield_xxxx

(hit preview to make sure that it returns the emails). No need to copy the emails to scripted fields.

Hi Thanos,

Thanks for your answer. yes I know that we can have the email cc but it's a "whim" I wanted to add in the email body like signatures in Outlook you know smile

getEmailAddress wants you to give it a user.  You appear to be feeding it a string which looks like the name of a field.

You need to do something more like getEmailAddress($issue.getCustomFieldValue(fieldManager.getCustomFieldByName("CR owner assignee")))

Although there's better ways to do it in a script, this at least shows you why your current code does not work.

If you want them in the signature then what Nic said 

Email Addr: <% out << issue.getCustomFieldValue(com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("CR owner assignee")) %>
