Examples
The output of this code is a String which you could, for example use to:
- Set the summary of the issue to the concatenation of two custom field values, say Customer Name and Machine details in:
- one of the Set Field Value post-functions
- one of the Transition issue post-functions on the transition screens, if any
- the Create issue post-function under Set fields of new issue section
org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.NullObject.metaClass.toString = {return ''} issue.get("Customer Name") + "-" + issue.get("Machine details")
- Include the key and description of the issue in the comment while notifying the customer that their issue has been resolved in one of the:
- Comment in one of the Comment issue post-functions
- Subject/HTML body/Text body of Email issue post-function
- JQL search expression of Link issues current to issue
org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.NullObject.metaClass.toString = {return ''} "Your issue" + issue.getKey() + " - " + issue.get("descritpion") + " has been resolved."
- Compare the text in a conditional execution script to:
- Run a post-function
- Run a condition
- Run a validator
- Unlink issues
