Setting Group Picker in Jira post-function

Rupa Goyal

Hi,

I am using the following Custom Script to set a value for single value Group Picker in my post-function:

It is not giving any error, but is not setting the value as well.

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.Group 
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager 
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor; 
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager; 
import java.util.List; 
 
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager(); 
def customerName = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12345")); 
ComponentManager componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance();
Group watcherGroup = componentManager.getUserUtil().getGroup( customerName[0]);
List&lt;Group&gt; groupList = new ArrayList&lt;Group&gt;() groupList.add(watcherGroup); 
 
def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Test Group Picker"); 
issue.setCustomFieldValue(cf, [groupList]); 
issue.store();

Thanks

I suspect it's what you're doing with customfield_12345 - you seem to be treating it as an array (implying a multi-option field of some sort), but then as though the elements are strings, which they won't be.

What type of field is it? And what do you expect it to be?

customfield_12345 is a 'nFeed' field and holds a string (it is multi-option autocomplete).

I have even printed the value of the Group picker custom field at the end of the script and is displaying the correct value but in '[]'like '[jira-users]'

log.warn(issue.getCustomFieldValue(com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Test Group Picker"))*.name)

Just the value is not being displayed on the ticket (I have the custom field on the view screen of JIRA ticket). Is it because of the [] brackets or am I missing something else?

Also I have added the custom script after the post-function 'Creates Issue' and before 'Fire Create Issue event' in the workflow.

A string is not the same as a multi-option.

You need to work out exactly what this nfeed field is returning as a java object - is it an array of strings? Is it an list of JIRA options? Is it a collection of nfeed option objects?

From your use of [] I suspect you've done part of this and discovered it is a collection of some form, and then tried to use it as such (because collection[0] will return the first object in the collection) but you need to work out what the objects actually are.

If it were a standard JIRA custom field, I could tell you, but I don't know what nfeed returns when asked for a field value.

It seems that nFeed claim they do not support programmatic access to their data. Please see: NFEED-652

That makes sense as it could be backed by any data source and i'm not sure how nFeed reads and stores that data.

You'll want to raise this with plugin vendor of nFeed to see what they say.

Adam,

This is not a nFeed issue. We are using a similar script to set Issue Security Level and it works fine.

Even if I do not read the value from nFeed and just add a hard-coded group name say 'jira-users', the script still does not work.

Thanks,

Rupa

Actual script used without nFeed:

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.Group
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import java.util.List;

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def groupManager = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()

def watcherGroup = groupManager.getGroup("jira-developers")
def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Test Group Picker")

issue.setCustomFieldValue(cf, watcherGroup)
log.warn(watcherGroup)
log.warn(cf)
issue.store();
log.warn(issue.getCustomFieldValue(com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Test Group Picker"))*.name)

The script is being used in the 'Create' transition of the workflow and placed after 'Creates Issue Originally' post-function.
