Is it possible to display project lead username in a custom field ?

[Mani]

I am trying to display project lead in a Scripted custom field.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you very much @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- @Alexey Matveev

Here is what worked for me:

issue.getProjectObject()?.getProjectLead()

This one works fine for me

issue.getProjectObject()?.getProjectLead()?.getDisplayName()

What is your Jira version and what is the error?

What does the tooltip show when you hover the cursor over the red cross to the left?

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist- surprisingly now it is not showing the red cross. It is now throwing a warning if I use the initial script. 

Below is the warning:

getLead is deprecated and will go away in a later version.  It's just warning you that you should not use it.  Try .getProjectLead instead
