Hi,

I need to show different values for same field based in the issue type.
From as I know, this can be done using Behaviors.

Jira Field:
Service and Sub-category - Is field is a cascade option.

Field options:
Service1 - 1 Sub 1
Service1 - 1 Sub 2

Service2 - 1 Sub 1
Service2 - 1 Sub 2

Service3 - 1 Sub 1
Service3 - 1 Sub 2

Context created:
Project = TESTSD
All issue types

What I need:
Issue type "Support"
must show only the options:
Service1 - 1 Sub 1
Service1 - 1 Sub 2

Service2 - 1 Sub 1
Service2 - 1 Sub 2

Issue type "BUG"
must show only the options:
Service3 - 1 Sub 1
Service3 - 1 Sub 2

Note 1 - this is to user in Service Desk

 

How can i do this? Can you help?

 

Thanks in advance

@Humberto Gomes, can you please clarify, should this be shown on the customer portal? Or is this on the agent side? 

Thanks!

@Humberto Gomes

Try something like this!


  1. Create a new behavior and tie it to all request types in the project.
  2. Add the following code to the initialiser section:
    import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

    import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours
    import com.atlassian.jira.issue.priority.Priority
    import groovy.transform.BaseScript

    @BaseScript FieldBehaviours fieldBehaviours
    def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
    def optionsManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager()
    def customerSelectField = getFieldByName('Service and Sub-category')
    def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(customerSelectField.getFieldId())
    def config = customField.getRelevantConfig(getIssueContext())
    def options = optionsManager.getOptions(config)


    def optionMap = [:]
    optionMap.put("-1", "None")


    if (issueContext.issueType.name == "Support") {

    optionMap += options.findAll {it.value in ['Service1', 'Service2']}.collectEntries {[(it.optionId.toString()): it.value]}

    }
    else if(issueContext.issueType.name == "Bug"){
    optionMap += options.findAll {it.value in ['Service3']}.collectEntries {[(it.optionId.toString()): it.value]}

    }


    customerSelectField.setFieldOptions(optionMap)

     

    I did some testing with this and it appears to be working for me!

@Kian Stack Mumo Systems  Thanks for your time.

 

What i'm doing wrong here?

 

Behaviour:

 

Field options:

Mapping:

Code:

ScreenHunter 778.png

 

Service desk:

IF I Change the mapping to:

ScreenHunter 781.png

The problem is the same.

Hmmm. I'm not sure on that one. What version of Jira are you using?

Hi,

 

This is the final code and it's working:

 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def optionsManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager()

def issueType = issueContext.getIssueType().getName()
def cascadingCustomField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects().findByName("Service and Subcategory")
def cascadingFormField = getFieldByName("Service and Subcategory")

def fieldConfig = cascadingCustomField.getRelevantConfig(issueContext)
def options = optionsManager.getOptions(fieldConfig)

// Get the parent's ID
def parentA_ID = options.find

{ it.value == 'A' }

.getOptionId()
def parentB_ID = options.find

{ it.value == 'B' }

.getOptionId()
def parentC_ID = options.find

{ it.value == 'C' }

.getOptionId()

// Set the parent's options
Map option1 = [:]
option1.put ("-1", "None")
option1.putAll([(parentA_ID) : "A" , (parentB_ID) : "B"])

Map option2 = [:]
option2.put ("-1", "None")
option2.putAll([(parentC_ID) : "C"])

// Set available options based on Issue Type
if (issueType == "Bug")

{ cascadingFormField.setFieldOptions(option1) }

else if (issueType == "Support")

{ cascadingFormField.setFieldOptions(option2) }

 

 

Thanks for all support.

Hi there, 

You can check out ScriptRunner's Library of the two below: 


The idea of setting normal Select List or Cascading Select List field options are the same as given in the above links. 

Other than that, do take note that there are two types of Behavior's mapping:

  1. Project/issuetype mapping
  2. Service Desk mapping

If you are trying to use it in Customer Portal, make sure you use the Service Desk mapping and map it to the appropriate Request Types. 

 

Cheers~

Hi @Benz Kek _Adaptavist_

I find that these links you provided are done in Groovy. But we have some existing scripts written without groovy. Do i need to convert the whole script to groovy, or can i only convert this one line? 

Or else can you tell me how to translate that before Groovy was being used in these scripts? 

if (issueType == "Initiative" || issueType == "Feature" || issueType == "xyz Feature" || issueType == "xyz Initiative" ) {
def optionsMap = ComponentAccessor.getConstantsManager().getPriorities().findAll { priority ->
priority.getName() in ["1. Must have", "2. Should have", "3. Could have", "4. Won't have this time"]
}.collectEntries {
[(it.id): it.name]
}
formField.setFieldOptions(optionsMap)
}

Which position would we be throwing the default assignment statement into? 
See my Option 1??, Option 2??, Option 3?/, Option 4?? positions below


if (issueType == "Initiative" || issueType == "Feature" || issueType == "xyz Feature" || issueType == "xyz Initiative" ) {
// Option 1??
def optionsMap = ComponentAccessor.getConstantsManager().getPriorities().findAll { priority ->
priority.getName() in ["1. Must have", "2. Should have", "3. Could have", "4. Won't have this time"]
// Option 2??
}.collectEntries {
[(it.id): it.name]
// Option 3??
}
formField.setFieldOptions(optionsMap)
// Option 4?? 
}

Also is this a valid approach? I am getting errors on the statement syntax 
def defaultValue = optionsMap.find(it.value == "3. Could have")

[Static type checking] - Cannot find matching method java.util.Map#find(boolean). Please check if the declared type is correct and if the method exists.
Possible solutions: find(), find(groovy.lang.Closure), find(groovy.lang.Closure), min(groovy.lang.Closure), any(), findAll()
