BA_getMultiValues (Power Actions)

The use of this routine requires the Power Actions add-on be installed and licensed.

Description

Gets the value entered or the selected option for the given field label.

Parameters

Return Type

String []

String array representing the selected options.

Examples

Example 1

For a script that creates a multi select list like the following:

BA_createMultiSelectList("Multiselect", {"a", "b", "c", "d", "e"}, {"a", "c", "e"}, false, true, "This field is required");

The selected values may be obtained with the BA_getMultiValues routine:

string [] res = BA_getMultiValues(argv, "Multiselect");
//res[0] = a
//res[1] = c
//res[2] = e
//The routine has returned in this case an array of three strings, "a", "c" and "e".

Example 2

Using a file upload field.

BA_createFileUpload("File 1", false, true, "Description for file 1");

We may obtain the uploads field's value as in the next code sample:

string [] res = BA_getSingleValue(argv, "File 1");
//res = "Demo_File.txt|C:\Program Files\Atlassian\Application Data\Jira\kepler\blitz-upload\Demo_File.txt"

With a file upload field the routine will return a string array containing pairs of original filename and uploaded path. Even indices will contain original filenames, while odd indices will contain an uploaded path.
