Compare Custom Field to Text Field

Anthony Delgado November 1, 2018

It appears that I can do direct searches to the Text field with a literal string such as 

TextField ~ "findThisString"

But I can't compare it directly to the value in another custom field:

TextField ~ "CustomFieldName"

Is there a way to do this?  If it matters, the field I want to compare to the text field is an Insight Object field.

Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Hello,

You can not do it out of the box. 

You would need an add-on for it.

Which add-ons allow this?

You could use the Power Scripts add-on:

Your JQL query would look like this:

key in silJQLExpression('#{your custom field name} == #{your custom field name}', 'project = TEST')
