Add custom field value to Comment in bulk.

[Rajiv Ranjan]

I wanted to add the existing custom field (Text Field (multi-line)) value into a comment in bulk. Kindly suggest a possible solution. We have a script runner plugin.

Hi @Rajiv Ranjan 

Can you elaborate your requirements? do you want to copy the value from custom field on multiple issues and copy it to a comment or create a comment with that value?

If yes then what you can do is following:

1. Create a filter for those issues.

2. Loop over those issues using SR4J.

3. Use SR4J to fetch custom field values for those issues one by one in that loop.

4. Create a comment with the content from custom field.

Look at the links for 2, 3 and 4.

Hello @Ravi Sagar _Sparxsys_

I wanted to delete the custom field but before deleting I would like  to copy the custom field value and add/create it to comment. 

Each issue have their own custom field value and it should added to comment individually.

That's what I suspected but my answer above is still relevant. Let me know how it goes.
