JIRA Automation: get information from Custom fields

[yannick ginestet]

hello,

I would like to use the content of the Custom Field_12103 of an issue to trigger action.

How to do it ?

For instance, i'm able to access to customfield_10009, using:

= {{issue.fields.customfield_10009}}, but i did not success to acess to the content of Custom Field_12103.

Any idea ?

below is an issue example, in XML format

Hi,

The best way to find the correct smart value for this is by going to the rest end point for the issue. e.g https://your-instance.com/rest/api/2/issue/<issue-key>. 

One you are there you will see the json structure of the issue. From that you can work out the smart value. E.g if the custom field value was

"customfield_12103": {

    "value": "value your looking for"

}

Then the smart value would be:

{{issue.customfield_12103.value}}

Hope that makes sense. Let me know how you go.

Cheers,

Scott.

It seems that i should be {{issue.fields.customfield_12103}}, but it is not working.

Am i right ?

Hi Yannick,

 You could use the Automation Lite for JIRA plugin. It's simple to set up and easy to use.
