Field Descriptions

Add a Scripted Field

Each Scripted Field entry represents a script that runs for an event. When a Scripted Field is added, define the following properties:

• Existing fields - Use an existing custom field to receive the update from a script.

• New field - Create a new custom field to be updated from a script.

  • Custom field name - The name that should be used for the custom field that will be created.

  • Custom field type - The type of standard Jira custom field that will be created.

• Trigger on - Optional triggers that can be set to also trigger the script execution on related issues to make sure scripted fields on those issues stay up to date.

  • Child update - If 'Child update' is set to true, the child issue is updated and current issue(parent) has a Scripted Field that matches the project and issue type(s) filter, the scripted field will be recalculated for that (parent) issue.

  • Parent update - If 'Parent update' is set to true, the parent issue is updated and current issue(child) has a Scripted Field that matches the project and issue type(s) filter, the scripted field will be recalculated for that (child) issue.

  • Linked issue update - If 'Linked issue update' is set to true, the linked issue is updated and current issue has a Scripted Field that matches the project and issue type(s) filter, the scripted field will be recalculated for that issue.

• Project category filter - The project categories that should be used to trigger the script. Only selected project categories will trigger the script to update the field.

• Project filter - The projects that should be used to trigger the script. Only selected projects will trigger the script to update the field.

• Issue type filter - The issue types that should be used to trigger the script. Only selected issue types will trigger the script to update the field.

• SIL Script - The existing SIL script that will be used to calculate the value for the custom field.

• Synchronize issues after save - The value of the script will be applied on the issues returned by the filters for the existing / just created custom field.
