How can I also mark the second field of a cascading field selection list as a mandatory field?

Sharam Blouri July 19, 2022

I have created a cascading field in custom fields, but I can mark the parent select list as required and not the child!

Hi Sharam,

I am not aware of a way to make that happen.

Hello everyone,

Hopping that this solution works for all of you, it did in my case.

First of all you need to have the ScriptRunner application installed.

Then, in the workflows transitions (in my case in the "create issue" transition), press on the transition and click "validations" option. Now you can create a new validation using the ScriptRunner Script option.

Use the following expression to avoid request creations without completing the child field of a cascading custom field like yours:

issue.YourCustomerFieldName.child != null

You can also include the error message description you want to show.
