Set Reporter as approval

[Swarna Radha]

Hi,

I want to set reporter as approval but i am unable to do. 

Please code:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import org.apache.log4j.Category
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

log.setLevel(org.apache.log4j.Level.DEBUG)

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
CustomField CF = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Approver (Business)");
def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()
def reporter = issue.getReporter().getName() as String
log.debug("reporter: $reporter")

def user_tier2engineer = userManager.getUserByName(reporter)
issue.setCustomFieldValue(CF, user_tier2engineer);

def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()

IssueManager issueManager=ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();
issueManager.updateIssue(user,issue,EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED,true);

Thanks Swarna

Try this:

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

log.setLevel(org.apache.log4j.Level.DEBUG)


CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
CustomField CF = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Approver (Business)");
def userList = new ArrayList();
userList.add(issue.getReporter());
log.debug("User list: ${userList.toString()}");
issue.setCustomFieldValue(CF, userList);
def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser();
IssueManager issueManager=ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();
issueManager.updateIssue(user,issue,EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED,true);

Hello @Swarna Radha

Try this. getReporter returns ApplicationUser object, dont need userManager to retrieve user.

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

log.setLevel(org.apache.log4j.Level.DEBUG)


CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
CustomField CF = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Approver (Business)");
def reporter = issue.getReporter()
log.debug("reporter: $reporter")
issue.setCustomFieldValue(CF, reporter);
def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()
IssueManager issueManager=ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();
issueManager.updateIssue(user,issue,EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED,true);

Is this postfunction?
