Insert custom field in custom email body

[Aravindi Amarasinghe]

Hi All, 

I want to send a customized email during the transition. 

I was using following code for the same reason in JIRA v 6.3 and it was working properly. 

<% out << (issue.getCustomFieldValue(componentManager.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Test Phase"))).toString() %> - <% out << (issue.getCustomFieldValue(componentManager.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Client"))).toString() %> 

but when I try the same in JIRA 7.3.8 , Script Runner 5.0.11 it gives me following error when validating the code. Can someone help me to sort out this issue? 

Error

No such property: componentManager for class: groovy.lang.Binding

Thanks all for the support. :) 

Following code worked for me. I added  com.atlassian.jira.component in front of the ComponentAccessor            

Test Phase: <% out << (issue.getCustomFieldValue(com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName('Test Phase')).toString()) %>

See jamie echlin-

An email template example:

Dear <% out << issue.assignee?.displayName %>,  

The $issue.issueType.name $issue.key with priority <% out << issue.priority?.name %> has been assigned to you.  

Description: ${issue.description} 
<% if (lastComment)    
out << "Last comment: " << lastComment
%>
Custom field value: <% out << issue.getCustomFieldValue(componentManager.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("MySelect")) %> 

Regards,

<% out << issue.reporter?.displayName %>

Thanks Neta. Yeah I tried this code but it didn't work for me.

Hello @Aravindi Amarasinghe

You must use ComponentAccessor instead of componentManager.

Try this

<% out << (issue.getCustomFieldValue(ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Test Phase"))).toString() %> - <% out << (issue.getCustomFieldValue(ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Client"))).toString() %>

Hi @Mark Markov 

Thank you for the answer. But it keeps throwing me this error 

No such property: ComponentAccessor for class: groovy.lang.Binding

And I tried this code suggested in other ticket. And it just print the same code in the email body. 

<% out << issue.getCustomFieldValue(com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Client")) %>

Hmmm, it should work.

Then try to pass value via config variable. Like in this example

In my opinion this is much better way to make email templates, because it is not that ugly :)
