how to get a custom field value from a current issue in java

[jschwien]

Hello,

I have added a custom text field to jira called sync  and populated with a simple string 1234. I need to be able to get that value (1234) in java so I can use it to do a rest call. my question is how can I get that customfield details of the current issue im on in?

Hello,

You mean with groovy script using the Jira API, right? If that so, you can do it like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("TEST-5")

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def customfield = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Testing")

return issue.getCustomFieldValue(customfield)
