Script Runner Behaviour - Issue Creation

Question

Hi,

I have a behavior that calculates Risk Level with a behaviour based on Risk Rating, Risk Consequence and Risk likelihood fields. Behaviour works nicely when I update those fields but how can I trigger the behaviour when I create an issue?

Thank you already in a advance!

Hi @Lean Li

In your description, you mentioned:-

Behaviours can only be triggered on the Create, Edit, Transition and Assign Issue screens.

If you want to automatically "trigger a Behaviour" in this context and set a value to a field upon issue creation, you will need to use either a Post-Function on the Create Transition or Listener, i.e., the Issue Created Event.

Please provide some more information on what type of field you intend to update, and I will try to provide a sample code.

I am looking forward to your feedback.

Thank you and Kind regards,
Ram

Hi,

I would assume this needs to be done in a post-function in the workflow.

There you could use almost the same code as in the behaviour.

Here you can see some examples on custom script post functions as the binding variables slightly differ:

Hope this helps :-)
