Hide custom field based on Group

[Musku Nagaraju]

Hi Team,

I am using Script runner for JIRA Server and I am looking to achieve Hide custom fields based on Group,

Ex: I have custom fields like Location, Instance , Min Cost, Max cost.... etc and I have one group like Generic Group.

I need to hide this fields to my Generic group.

Can you help me the right code.

Thanks

Hi @Musku Nagaraju ,

Please create a behaviour mapped to relevant issue type/project. Then create an initializer and use this script (update field id and name of group) : 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def groupManager = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()

if (currentUser != null && groupManager.getUsersInGroup("generic-group").contains(currentUser)) {
int customFieldId = 11000
def customField = getFieldById("customfield_" + customFieldId)
customField.setHidden(true)
}

Not sure if I understood well if generic group is a custom field though.

Hi @Antoine Berry 

Thanks for your inputs, however this is working for me in create and edit screen, but not in view screen.

I need to hide fields in view screen as well. 

Thanks

Unfortunately behaviours do not work on the view screen (as mentioned here). 

You might need javascript (example here - you will find other useful pieces of information).
