Can't get issue Object when creating a Automation triggered by issue transition

[Jiwei Li]

I am writing a automation script to access value of a custom field, triggered when there is a certain transition of status on issues.

However, seems I just can't get access to the issue object. It is very frustrating, please help.

---- Code---

import com.atlassian.jira.bc.project.component.ProjectComponent
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import org.apache.log4j.Logger
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue

import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.link.IssueLinkDeletedEvent
import org.apache.log4j.Level
import org.apache.log4j.Logger
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLinkType

println "pwd".execute().text

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10212");// here replace the ID with ID of your custom field.

def value = (String)issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField);

println "$value"

-----error -----

Unexpected error executing rule:

groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: issue for class: 

I have also tried other ways to get the issue object like:

def issue=event.getIssue() 
Issue issue=issue

I always got the same errors of No such property on issue or event

Hello, to help you I would need more information. Is this code a Listener or a post function ?
