How to make a custom field mandatory at issue create, if reporter in user group ...

[Josef Sigl]

I've a custom field that should be required, if the reporter in usergroup "AT_CPBS-Kunden(Alle)", but it should be mandatory for all other users.

I want to make this in JIRA Workflow with the validator "Fields Required Validator (JMWE app)"

Hi @Josef Sigl 

You could try 

currentUser.isInGroup("AT_CPBS-Kunden(Alle)")

Thanks so much, It works ;-)

Do you also have an idea, how I can "hide or show" one field at issue create, if the currentUser is group XY? is this possible?

That can only be done with ScriptRunner and its Behaviors feature.

Hi @Josef Sigl 

your question wasn't entirely clear, you wrote that the custom field that should be required, if the reporter in usergroup "AT_CPBS-Kunden(Alle)", but it should be mandatory for all other users. It sounds like it is mandatory for all users. Did you mean that it should be mandatory only for members of the group, or for all users except members of the group?

If the former, then the conditional validation script should be:

currentUser.isInGroup("AT_CPBS-Kunden(Alle)")

Otherwise, it should be:

! currentUser.isInGroup("AT_CPBS-Kunden(Alle)")
