To retrieve the value of a text custom field simply create a string variable and set the value to the custom field.

To set the value of a text custom field simply set the custom field to equal the text or string variable.

Getting Values

string myText = customfield_12345;

NOTE: Getting the value using the customfield id is not the best practice when writing SIL scripts. See the Working with Custom Fields example for more information on the best practices.

Setting Values

customfield_12345 = "Hello world!";

NOTE: This script assumes that it is running in the context of an issue. Like in a workflow script or listener for example. If you would like to test this script from the SIL Manager, add an issue key to test with under the Run Configuration setting (Run > Run Configuration > Context).
