Hi All,
I'm aware of two options of adding default values to a custom field, by editing the field or using behaviours. Unfortunately the inputted text isn't appearing as expected.
Custom Field
I updated the custom field directly adding a default value, but the text isn't appearing. I re-indexed the project and restarted browsers, but no joy.
Behaviours
I recycled and tweaked behaviours which already work for other custom fields, but no joy. (script versions below) However, when using script in conjunction with an issue type for a different custom field worked. Although assigning an issue type and using my custom field didn't work.
Version 1:
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
def desc = getFieldById("customfield_xxxxx")
def defaultValue = """h4. Header One
- Add text here.
h4. Header two
- Add text here.""".replaceAll(/ /, '')
Version 2:
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
def desc = getFieldById("My Custom Field")
def defaultValue = """h4. Header One
- Add text here.
h4. Header two
- Add text here.""".replaceAll(/ /, '')
Making both updates haven't made the new text appear.
I would appreciate help on how to troubleshoot and ultimately fix this issue.
Thanks.
