checkbox as filter in ScriptRunner script

[helen levich]

Custom field checkbox "Merge" set to have only one value "Yes". So, practically when checkbox is not set to yes, then it does not show on story.
I need to set filter to when checkbox is not equal to "Yes"
I tried
if( it.toString() != "Yes")
if( it.toString().empty)
if( it.toString() != "")
if( it.toString() != null)

if (it.toString().trim().length() == 0)

Nothing works. Does anyone have a suggestion?

This works fine with filter set to Merge=Yes.

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Merge");
def checkBoxValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
checkBoxValue.each
if( it.toString() == "Yes")

Thank you

getCustomFieldValue on a checkbox field returns an array of options.

You can check that with:

def customField = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Merge")
def checkBoxValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
log.info "checkboxValue is of type ${checkBodValue.getClass()}"

So to know if "Yes" is checked or not try this:

def customField = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Merge")
def checkBoxValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
def yesIsChecked = checBoxValue.any{it.value == 'Yes'} //will be True or False

Thank you. I made change, but it still does not work. could you please suggest?

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Incremental Dev Merge");
def checkBoxValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)

checkBoxValue.each
{
log.warn "================check box: "+it.toString()
log.warn("================issueLink.issueLinkType.name: "+issueLink.issueLinkType.name)

def yesIsChecked = checkBoxValue.any{it.toString() == 'Yes'}

if(issueLink.issueLinkType.name == "Epic-Story Link" && issue.getIssueType().name == "Story" && yesIsChecked == false)

{
def currentValue = epicissue.getAffectedVersions()

Can you post your full code in a properly formatted code block? At the very least, there is a missing closing }. It's hard to know what else might be missing.

But at first glance ... "it.toString()" should be "it.value" or "it.getValue()"

def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Incremental Dev Merge");
def checkBoxValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)

checkBoxValue.each {
  log.warn "================check box: $it.value"
  log.warn("================issueLink.issueLinkType.name $issueLink.issueLinkType.name")
}
def yesIsChecked =  checkBoxValue.any{it.value == 'Yes'}

if(issueLink.issueLinkType.name == "Epic-Story Link" && issue.issueType.name == "Story" && !yesIsChecked)
{
   def currentValue = epicissue.getAffectedVersions()
}

Thank you, that works. :)

Hi @helen levich

Try this,

If(!issue.getCustomFieldValue(customfield))

{

//Do something

}

Thank you, I tried it, but for some reason it does not work.
