Hi,

 

I am trying to set up a validator on issue creation using "ScriptRunner for JIRA" to only allow a field to be filled in only if there are no 'Spaces'

Example: 

abc 123 < Incorrect

abc123 < Correct

 

Any suggestions please? 

Cheers,
Jason

Hi @Jason Galea,

 

it should work if you get the field value as string and then check, for example with the contains-method, if there are any spaces within.

Use this as your validator condition:

!cfValues["FIELD_NAME"]?.value.contains(" ")
