Search in Webhook Response and get a specific value back

[Martin Müller]

Hi,

i've got a little problem using smartvalues in my jira automation webhook. 

I'm using 

{{webhookResponse.body.additionalInformation.fields.first}}

and receive

{id=33, type=TEXT, values=[21077]}, {id=39, type=TEXT, values=[PG-FBL]}

I'm able to get the values with 

{{webhookResponse.body.additionalInformation.fields.first.values.get(0).jsonEncode}}

{{webhookResponse.body.additionalInformation.fields.first.values.get(1).jsonEncode}}

and receive 

21077

PG-FBL

Now iam creating a new Issue where those values are matched to some customfields.

The Problem is, sometimes the foreign system where i get the data from, responds with more then those 2 values and in a different order, so i cant match them right.

Is there any possibility to search for the id (id=33 and (id=39) and only get the value back? 

Best regards

Martin

Hi, Martin,

One alternative would be to venture into regex matching with the match() function.

See the example from this page:

• Text functions - Automation for Jira 

Let me know if that doesn't make sense but the idea would be to match to different regex using the ID as an anchor.

{{webhookResponse.body.additionalInformation.fields.first.match("id=33, type=TEXT, values=\[(.*)\]")}}

I can't test it right not, but hopefully that should give you a better idea of what I meant!

Hi Filipi,

it doesnt work. i have a question for testing:

{{webhookResponses.get(1).body.additionalInformation.fields.first.match(".*(\d).*")}}

This should give ma a digit back, right? This doesnt work as well. The log is empty for your command and in my test as well.  

{{webhookResponses.get(1).body.additionalInformation.fields.first}}

returns

 {id=33, type=TEXT, values=[21077]}, {id=39, type=TEXT, values=[PG-OBL]}

I even tried this

{{webhookResponses.get(1).body.additionalInformation.fields.first.get(0).match(".*(\d).*")}}

log still emtpy. 

{{webhookResponses.get(1).body.additionalInformation.fields.first.get(0)}}

returns

 {id=33, type=TEXT, values=[21077]}

Maybe you have another idea? Would appreciate it.
