Originally asked by Patrick Mennecke on 27 January 2021 (original question)

From ServiceNow, I get the assignment group from the display value.

If a group is selected in ServiceNow that does not exist in Jira then a default value should be set.
In Jira a select list field is used.
Attached my incoming rule but this does not work

incomcing line in jira

issue.customFields.“Assignment Group”?.value = replica.assignment_group.display_value :? IBM-other

You can always get an option from a select list using nodeHelper.getOption just like this:

def group = nodeHelper.getOption(issue, "Assignment Group", replica.assignment_group.display_value)
if(group != null) {
  issue.customFields."Assignment Group" = group} else {    issue.customFields."Assignment Group"?.value = "IBM-other"}

or using ternary operator

def group = nodeHelper.getOption(issue, "Assignment Group", replica.assignment_group.display_value)
issue.customFields."Assignment Group".value = (group != null) ? group.value : "IBM-other"

You can modify this sample to your needs. Check here for more details on nodeHelper.getOption
