Hello there, could someone help me in the follow scenario using SIL SCRIPT FOR Jira Server.

Based on the selection of an item from the select list custom field..how to ADD a user or multiple users to a multi user custom field?

Which part do you need help with?

1. The "if" condition (ie if "Item" is selected from my_select_list_customfield)
2. adding user to a multiuser custom field?

Or do you need both?

Thanks so much @Andrew Laden  for the response, how can we do both ? Appreciate it.

For your first part, are you using a single select list or a multi select list? That will affect the code.

For a single select list you could do

if ( #{single_list} == value) { 
do stuff
}

For a multi select, you treat it as an array

if ( arrayElementExists(#{select_list},value)) {
do stuff
}

Adding a user to a multiuser custom field is also an array operations

arrayAddElementIfNotExist(#{MultiUserList}, user)

Look at the array routines on the SIL documentation page
