Setting a default value for a drop-downs based on selected issue-type

Dinesh

I have a Project with custom Issue types(A, B and C) and I have a drop-down(Drop-down1) present in Create screens of all these Issue types.

Drop-down1 Values ----- Mango, Banana, Apple.

So when Issue type A is selected I would like to set the Default value of Drop-down1 to Mango and for other issue types I would like it to be "None"

 

I tried setting up a different context for same project twice but it does not allow me to do so.

Can this be achieved  ?

 

Thanks for the help!

Dinesh, 

You cannot do this using custom field contexts. I understand the desire, but it isn't possible with the base functionality.

 

Thanks, 

Kian

Hello, 

You would need a plugin for it.

For example, you could use the Power Scripts add-on:

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/43318/power-scripts-jira-script-automation?hosting=cloud&tab=overview

You could add a Live Fields with a code like this:

if(issueType == "Epic") {    

  lfRestrictSelectOptions("customfield_10703", {"1", "2", "3", "4", "5"});

}

You can read more about Live Fields here:

Hi Alex,

 

Thanks for your response.

Currently we don't have Power Scripts add-on installed in our system. Is it possible to implement this functionality using Script Runner?

 

Thanks!
