Script Workflow Validator Help

[Phil Pearce]

I have written the following script to run on the Create workflow transition and it always retrurns False. I have tested it using the Script Console manually retrieving an issue and it works. Are you able to help with this??

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

ComponentManager componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()

//issue = componentManager.getIssueManager().getIssueObject("PROP-1310")
pcm = componentManager.getProjectComponentManager()

pc = pcm.findComponentsByIssue(issue)

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = componentManager.getCustomFieldManager()
CustomField cf= customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12114")

boolean res
res = false
for (c in pc) {
    switch (c.getName()) {
        case ['test', 'test2']:
            if (cf.getValue(issue).toString() == 'Supplier1') {
                res = true
            } else {
                res = false
            }
            break

        default :
            res = false
    }
}
return res

How can you access/set the pre saved Issues values?

Hi Bhushan,

Unfortunately this has not worked. I believe the problem is that the Issue has not yet been created in the database on the Create Validator

[Udo Brand]

You're correct, validation comes before the postfunction and there the first step is 'Create the issue originally', so the issue hasn't been created at that stage.

Hey Phil,

Try changing

if (cf.getValue(issue).toString() == 'Supplier1')

to

if (cf.getValue(issue).toString().equals('Supplier1'))

Cheers
