How to check values of field in workflow?

[Josef Sigl]

• I've a field (typ: Chekbox) and we use it currently only with 1 selection.
• Now I'd like to give it more selectios, but it shall be select only one of them.
• Ich want to make it in workflow with an check and if the user select more than one, he should get an error Message!
• How can i do this? We use JMWE app

Hi @Josef Sigl 

using JMWE, you can create a Scripted (Groovy) Validator with a script like:

issue.get("my checkbox custom field name or ID")?.size() == 1

Hi @Josef Sigl 

please replace the script with:

issue.get("customfield_10375")?.size() == 1

Hi @Josef Sigl 

I'm glad it worked.

Can you please "Accept" the answer so that others can benefit from it?

Thanks

Hello David, unfortunately it doesn't work perfectly ;-/

This error message should only appear, if someone enters 2 values. If someone enters only 1 value or no value, there should be no error message.

Do you have an idea how I can solve this?

Hello David, I've already found the solution.

issue.get("customfield_10375")?.size() <= 1

It works ;-)

Hi!

If you only want 1 selection to be possible, why not use Radio button type control?

Hello Jeroen,

the field exists for a long time and I don't want to create a new one, because all queries inklude this field would no longer work.

So I'd like to regulate this with an Validator-check
