Why am I getting the error "Component/s is Required" When the component field is not set to required?

Either it is set to required (check the field configuration) or you have a validator that says it is required on the workflow

Hi Nic,

How do I make component required on a workflow? I tried the below and it didn't work.

cfValues['Component/s'] != null

Components is not a custom field (unless you've added one by that name), so that call won't work.  I tend to use the JIRA Suite utilities "field required" validator and can't remember the syntax for scripting it.

Yes Sir! Not sure why i didn't see that. This is why you are the expert:)
