Issue with Inserting Table into Custom Field via Post-Function ScriptRunner

[Dexia O_Shea]

I'm trying to insert a table into a custom field value , collection of requirements, when an issue is transitioned and i'm adding it as a post function with script runner. this is my code but it is not working, the last line is returning with a red underline

// define custom field

def customFieldId = "customfield_10281"

// Define the content for the custom field

def requirementsContent = """

<strong>Collection of Requirements</strong>

<table>

<tr>

<th>Requirement</th>

<th>Description</th>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Requirement 1</td>

<td>Description for Requirement 1</td>

</tr>

<!-- Add more rows as needed -->

</table>

"""

// Set the custom field value

issue.setCustomFieldValue(customFieldId, requirementsContent)

Hi @Dexia O_Shea 

Welcome to the community,Ensure your custom field is a text field or a field that supports rich text formatting, as this will allow you to display the table correctly

// Get the issue
def issue = getIssue()

// Get the custom field ID (replace with your field ID)
def customFieldId = 'your_custom_field_id'

// Get the custom field object
def customField = getFieldById(customFieldId)

// Define the table content (using Markdown or HTML)
def table = """
| Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 |
|---|---|---|
| Row 1, Cell 1 | Row 1, Cell 2 | Row 1, Cell 3 |
| Row 2, Cell 1 | Row 2, Cell 2 | Row 2, Cell 3 |
"""

// Set the value of the custom field
customField.setFormValue(table)

In The script:

setFormValue(table): Sets the value of the custom field to the provided table content

HTML Code:

// Get the issue
def issue = getIssue()

// Get the custom field ID (replace with your field ID)
def customFieldId = 'your_custom_field_id'

// Get the custom field object
def customField = getFieldById(customFieldId)

// Define the table content (using HTML)
def table = """
<table border="1">
<tr>
<th>Header 1</th>
<th>Header 2</th>
<th>Header 3</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Row 1, Cell 1</td>
<td>Row 1, Cell 2</td>
<td>Row 1, Cell 3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Row 2, Cell 1</td>
<td>Row 2, Cell 2</td>
<td>Row 2, Cell 3</td>
</tr>
</table>
"""

// Set the value of the custom field
customField.setFormValue(table)

Hope this helps
