How to retrieve checkbox custom field values

[David Antebi]

Hi,

I'm using the script below to retrieve checkbox custom field values.
However, when I search the log I see that although I selected one option from the checkboxes, I receive a null value in the script.

Please help me to understand what I'm doing wrong?!

//deal Deal Types field
CustomField dealDealTypes = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("deal Deal Types");
List<Option> options = (List<Option>)dealDealTypes.getValue(issue);
def ss = options.toString()
logd.debug(" options: " + options)
logd.debug(" ss: " + ss)

Thanks!

Hello,

Where do you execute this script?

Try to do like this:

CustomField dealDealTypes = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("deal Deal Types");
def options = issue.getCustomFieldValue(dealDealTypes);
def ss = options.toString()
logd.debug(" options: " + options)
logd.debug(" ss: " + ss)

Thanks for your answer but now I receive this message in the log:

 I'm running this script in workflow validator.

What is line 29 in your script?
