How to update a triggerIssue field ?

[Olivier]

Hello, 

I would like to set value of the custom field "test" of my issue trigger

I did that but I have a SyntaxError

{
"fields": {
"{{triggerIssue.Test}}" : "Test"
}
}

STEP 1 : I use a recursive function to get alla the issue linked...and it works

SPET 2 : I want to put the custom field value the a linked issue to my trigger issue...doen't work  

Could you help me please ?

Hi Oliver,

What type of custom field is the field "Test"? You need to not be on a branch, and use this syntax:

{

      "fields": {

          "Test": "My value"

      }

}

Hello Scott.

Test is a text custom field

I would like to put the value of the issue linked to my trigger issue. Something like that :

{
"fields": {
"{{triggerIssue.fields.Test}}" : {{issue.fields.Test}}
}
}

Hi Oliver,

Doing this isn't that robust as you may have multiple issue links, which have different values. If you can guarantee you only have one issue link you can get rid of the branch, and simple choose the text custom field from the field picker and enter this.

{{issue.issuelinks.first.key}}

Let me know if that works for you.
