Okay. You probably have more than one field with the same name "Overtime Type" in your instance so we are most likely getting a reference to the wrong one. Try using the specific Custom Field ID as shown below. That worked for me.
You can find this id by going to Custom Field and hovering over configure as shown below. Make sure you only change the number not the customfield_ part :)
Hope this works for you!
Hi Mathis,
Thanks again for helping me!
Unfortunately its the same error.
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def userManager = ComponentAccessor.userManager
def issueService = ComponentAccessor.issueService
def overtimeTypeField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_18403")
def overtimeTypeValue = overtimeTypeField.getValue(issue)
def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()
def issueInputParameters = issueService.newIssueInputParameters()
def user
if (overtimeTypeValue.equals("TOIL")) {
user = userManager.getUserByName("john.smith")
}
else if (overtimeTypeValue.equals("PAID")) {
user = userManager.getUserByName("david.monk")
}
issueInputParameters.setAssigneeId(user.getUsername())
def validateUpdateResult = issueService.validateUpdate(currentUser, issue.id, issueInputParameters)
if (validateUpdateResult.isValid()) {
issueService.update(currentUser, validateUpdateResult)
}
I tried with a made up username and a valif username and get the same result.
As this script is between create and the first stage in the workflow i wondered whether this was as a result of the script thinking that "overtime type" value was empty? as its populated the same time as the username that i require? Could this be that even though i select "PAID" on the ticket it thinks nothing has been populated and can therefore NOT "invoke getusername"?
I genuinely feel we are close!
Okay so it should work if you just add .toString() after .getValue() :)
Since it is a select field .getValue() returns a LazyLoadedOption which we later try to call .equals() on. LazyLoadedOption != String("TOIL" or "PAID") therefore we need to cast it to a String before we compare the two :)
Hi Mathis,
No errors in the code but the script is failing.. I think its to do with line 26?
It's basically telling you that you have no user named "user.user1" or "user.user2" depending of what part of the code is executing.
the value you need for the user you want to assign can be found under "User management" like so:
EDIT: Any reason you changed ".getUserByName("user2")" to ".getUserByKey("user.user2")"?
