Retrieve name of Custom Field by value of another field fe Summary

[Manuela]

Hello, I have a large number of Custom Fields, that I would like to refer to. There is only 1 custom field in each issue, that has the same name as the summary content. How can I achieve this? Nesting is not working: {{issue. {{Issue.summary}}}} :(

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Custom fields are also accessed by their id (and it's better to use this because your admins won't change it if they rename the field!) - try {{customfield_11200.value}} instead of {{issue.summary}}

You'll need to look up the number, but it's not too bad - Admin -> Custom fields, find it in the list and then hover over, or go into one of the edit or configuration options and look for "id=xxxxx" in the url.

I still think Atlassian should block people from using duplicate field names.  In both team and company managed projects.

Hello,

okay let's explain that way (I have 94 custom fields):

Issue IS-1: customfield_11200, customfieldname = issue.summary (value)

Issue IS-2: customfield_11300, customfieldname = issue.summary (value)

I want to set an Automation based on customfield, that's different for each issue. I thought about grabbing value of summary and use it as custom field name. Any ideas?

There's no way to do that.  Each custom field is a separate field, you will have to refer to each one individually.

Update: I was able to do this with Scriptrunner listener. Anyway, thx @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- for response :)
