"The variable [cfValues] is undeclared"

[Zita Bagi]

Dear Everyone,

I would like to run this short script

cfValues['Radio button field']?.value == "Yes"

in Adaptavist ScriptRunner Behaviours but it doesn't work, the error message is: "The variable [cfValues] is undeclared".

Since I got this from here https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/5.0.9/jira/recipes/workflow/validators/simple-scripted-validators.html I don't know what I have to import before the script can be run.

I have

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.option.Option
import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours
import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FormField
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

but that's not enough. With a simple scripted validator the line would work by itself but can someone please tell me how to declare cfValues when it has to be declared?

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Zita Bagi ,

You can use the following script if you work with Behaviours.

def formField = getFieldByName("Radio button field")
String fieldVal = formField.getValue()
if(fieldVal.equals("Yes"){
   // do sth
}

Please check this link: https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/behaviours-api-quickref.html

Hi, thank you, I tried this, but it didn't work. The script doesn't show an error but it doesn't perform the desired validation. I want it to do the validation only if Yes is in the checkbox, but now it validates even without the Yes.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you in advance!

Also, if I insert this to the workflow as a simple scripted validator, it doesn't allow the transition even if the option is yes and I enter something in the field which I set as required.

Hi @Zita Bagi ,

It is a Behaviours code, doesn't work in workflow validators.

First of all, please be sure that fields are added to pop-up screen. If not, it doesn't work. As I understand, you want to make a field required depending on other field. 

Go to behaviors -> Add "... Opportunity2" -> Add custom script. It should work.

def opportunityField = getFieldById(getFieldChanged())
String fieldVal = opportunityField.getValue()
def detailsField = getFieldById("customfield_XXXXX") //CF ID

//Debug purpose
opportunityField.setHelpText("Val: "+fieldVal)

if(fieldVal.equals("Yes"){
   detailsField.setRequired(true)
}else{
   detailsField.setRequired(false)
}

You can use field.setHelpText() method step-by-step in order to find the problem.
