How to map a boolean Asset field to "Ja/Nein" values from Jira?

[Bernd Anderer]

I have a "Ja", "Nein" select field in a JSM project.

I want to store that information in a boolean Asset field (True / false)

Question is: how can I do that? How can I convert the "Ja" value coming from Jira to a "True" value in the asset attribute?

Thanks in advance,

Bernd

Hi @Bernd Anderer ,

I think the easiest solution is to create an 'if/then' condition in your automation rule on the "issue.customfield_10273"

If "issue.customfield_10273" = Yes

Then Use the "Create Variable" action to create a new Smart value and fill it with "True"

Else Use the "Create Variable" action to create a new Smart value and fill it with "False"

You can then use this smart value in your "Create Object" action to set the object boolean attribute.

I'm not sure what value you need to use to set the boolean attribute (false/true or 0/1)

Best regards,

I guess you are right - that is actually a simple solution.

Sometimes I don‘t see the forest for the trees :-)

Thanks for your help

Hi @Bernd Anderer ,

What is the process exactly ?

The "Ja", "Nein" select field is part of an issue ?

The issue triggers an automation rule that performs some action on an asset object ?

Best regards,

Hi @Kris Dewachter 

good question - looks like I skipped some details :-) 

I use an automation that creates an Asset Object with "Create Object".

In there I set the attributes with smart variables.

Let's say that "baustart_erfolgt" is a boolean attribute in the Asset Object and {{issue.customfield_10273}} is the Ja/Nein Value from the JSM form.

When I just assign {{issue.customfield_10273}} to "baustart_erfolgt" I am not getting "True / false" 

What I need is something like this:

if {{issue.customfield_10273}} Ja Then True

if {{issue.customfield_10273}} Nein Then False

Makes sense?
