How make cascading field child values required in Jira?

[Narek Zohrabyan]

Hello dear community,

Please suggest the options how making cascading field child values required in Jira?

Has anyone faced this kind of problem, and how was it resolved?

You can suggest everything up to purchasing the apps that can cover this need.

Thanks a lot

You can do this with the ScriptRunner app:

1. Go to Project Settings > Workflows.

2. Edit the workflow and select the transition (e.g., Create Issue, In Progress).

3. Add a ScriptRunner Validator.

4. Use a script like this:

def value = issue.getCustomFieldValue("My Field Name")
return value?.child?.value != null

This validator checks that the child value is not null!

Hi @Aron Gombas _Midori_ 

Correct, but this will mean the company has to purchase or already have this 3rd party app.

I think it's fair to mention this, as ootb this is not possible.

I agree.
