Can you provide more details?

In what context are you running this script? Is it in a custom scripted postfunction, scripted listener or something else?

What type of field is your custom field "Applications / Services"? Is is a single select drop-down? A free text field? An asset field? Something else?

Hello @Peter-Dave Sheehan 

Thanks for your answer

So this script is a listenner script that will activate when I create a ticket on a jira project.

The field type is a single-choice cascading custom field

Thanks in advance

[Peter-Dave Sheehan]

The getCustomFieldValue method of the issue object, when the custom field is of type cascading select will return a Map with 2 items

[null:ParentOption, '1':ChildOption]

Both the ParentOption and ChildOption will be of type Option.

So if you want to check if a specific combination had been selected, you can do it like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName("Applications / Services")[0]
def optionMap = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField)
//log.warn("la valeur est " + optionMap)

def user = userManager.getUserByName("login1")
def user1 = userManager.getUserByName("login2")

if (optionMap[null].value == "test42" && optionMap['1'] == "testy") {
    log.warn("the value is " + optionMap)
    issue.setAssignee(user)

    log.warn("le ticket a été assigné a " + user)
}

A couple of notes,

1. "issue" provided in the listener is already an issue object, there is no need to call issueManager.getIssueObject.
2. userManager.getUser is deprecated. You should use userManager.getUserByName
3. In a listener, issue.setXXX will only update the issue in memory. If you want to persist the change, you have to make explicit calls to issueManager.updateIssue. Or skip the setXXX method and use the IssueService instead.
