Here we will show you how to transfer metadata values to a Select List during the creation of an issue.

For the example we use the metadata "Service Level" which can be set for a user (further details about the User Screen can be found here: How-to customize the Metadata Customer Screen as Jira-Administrator). As shown here, this metadata can have the value "Platinum".

...

In the Jira instance the field "Reporter - Service Level" was added and configured as shown here.

In the "Create" transition of a workflow a "Custom script post-function" (further has to be added and the following script has to be provided:

OptionsManager optionsManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager()
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager= ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Reporter - Service Level") // Reporter - Service Level is the of my Select custom field
def fieldConfig = cf.getRelevantConfig(issue)
def option = optionsManager.getOptions(fieldConfig).getOptionForValue(metadataService.getMetadataValue(issue.getReporter(), "Service Level"), null)
issue.setCustomFieldValue(cf, option)

The script copies "Service Level" metadata from the Reporter to the “Reporter Reporter - Service Level” Level field. The result looks like this.:

How-to

...

use Metadata values within Scripted Fields - in Progress

Info

This how-to requires the installation of ScriptRunner for Jira

Here we will show you how to use metadata values within a "calculated" custom field on an issue.

Within Jira, Scriptrunner field of type "Text Field (multi-line)" was created and named Financial expenditure. (further Further details can be found here https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/scripted-fields.html and here https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/recipes/misc/table-custom-field.html ) and named "Financial expenditure".

For the example we use the metadata "Hourly rate" which is set in the project (further details about Project Screens can be found here: How to customize the Metadata Project Screen as Jira-Administrator). As shown here, it has the value 105.5.

...

In the Custom Script Field "Financial expenditure" the following Groovy script must be added under "Script".

}
