How to run validator on Linked Issue Custom field value (Select cascading field)?

[Lokesh Singh Sisodia]

I want to ensure that linked issues (From different Projects) are for the same client or not.

I have a common custom field in both issue tickets and it is cascading select list type custom field.

I am using the below JIRA  expression, but it is working on the first value only. my custom field has two dropdown value.

issue.customfield_10026.value == linkedIssue.customfield_10026.value

Hi Lokesh,

You are comparing only the parent fields not the children.

To fix it you'd need to compare the whole field values including both parent and child so you need to use something like this:

issue.customfield_10026 == linkedIssue.customfield_10026

Hope it helps!

@Sayed Bares [ServiceRocket]  Thanks for the insight... I added the child value also in the expression and it worked.

issue.customfield_10026.value == linkedIssue.customfield_10026.value &&
issue.customfield_10026.child.value == linkedIssue.customfield_10026.child.value
