Examples
Example 1
Let's suppose in our examples `TextField` is a custom field text already configured for the current Jira server instance and `TestDB` represents the database resource name configured in the server context. For more details see SQL data sources.
TextField=databaseAvailable("TestDB"); //will set 'TextField' value to 'true'
Example 2
TextField=databaseAvailable("TestDB", "select pname from project"); //will set 'TextField' value to 'true' if the SQL passed in can be executed
Example 3
TextField=databaseAvailable("TestDB", "select pname from inexistentTableName");//will set 'TextField' value to 'false', because the SQL passed in cannot be executed
Example 4
To configure the data source check the SQL data sources configuration chapter.
