Syntax

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
fieldStringYes

Specifies the field to enable.

See Standard Variables for available fields.

Example

If you want to enable a field to the Admin user (and keep it disabled for all other users), use the lfEnable routine.

if(assignee == "admin") {
   lfEnable("issueType");
}

To disable the field, use the lfDisable routine.

Advanced Example

This example demonstrates of enabling a field that was previously disabled by a Live Field configuration. The example below waits for a change to the priority field, during an inline edit, and if the value is Low or Medium, reenables the issueType field. 

Live Field Configuration
lfDisable("issueType");
lfWatch("priority", {"issueType"}, "hook.sil", {"inlineEditSaveComplete"});
hook.sil
if(priority == "Low" || priority == "Medium") {
   lfEnable("issueType");
} else {
    lfDisable("issueType");
}
