Unable to sync jira single list to ALM

General Questions

Originally asked by SANDEEP ADE on 08 February 2022 (original question)

I have the following code

JIRA SENDING SIDE

replica.customFields."Functional Area – PCM”= issue.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”

ALM INCOMING SIDE

defect.customFields.“FunctionalArea”.value = replica.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”?.value.value

Previously the sync rules allowed the below code

defect.customFields.“FunctionalArea”.value = replica.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”?.value?[0].value

and our sync worked ,but now the above line is throwing error

Even though i am copying the field name from the remote replica ,still its showing Null value.

Below is the remote replica

“Functional Area – PCM”: {
“id”: 15205,
“name”: “Functional Area - PCM”,
“uid”: “15205”,
“type”: “OPTION”,
“value”: {
“id”: “22009”,
“sequence”: 6,
“value”: “PCM”,
“disabled”: false,
“childOptions”:
}
}
},

What is the error thrown?

SANDEEP ADE commented on 09 February 2022

I am getting “Cannot get property ‘value’ on null object”

But in the remote replica i am seeing the below

“Functional Area – PCM”: {
“id”: 15205,
“name”: “Functional Area - PCM”,
“uid”: “15205”,
“type”: “OPTION”,
“value”: {
“id”: “22009”,
“sequence”: 6,
“value”: “PCM”,
“disabled”: false,
“childOptions”:
}
}
},

I tried the below options but both are throwing error

defect.customFields.“BG_USER_02”.value = replica.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”.value.value

defect.customFields.“BG_USER_02”.value = replica.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”.value(0).value

Can it be that defect.customFields.“BG_USER_02” is null?

SANDEEP ADE commented on 09 February 2022

i didn’t quite get what you said

BG_USER_02 is a field in ALM ,i am trying to populate the value “PCM” received from Functional Area – PCM from JIRA in BG_USER_02 which is ALM.

i have the code as below,

JIRA SENDING SIDE

replica.customFields."Functional Area – PCM”= issue.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”

ALM INCOMING SIDE

defect.customFields.“BG_USER_02”.value = replica.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”.value.value

and to confirm Functional Area - PCM is not Null because in the remote replica i am seeing value as PCM for this field

So not sure whats the issue

Francis Martens (Exalate) commented on 09 February 2022

It can still be that the nullpointerexception is raised by

 defect.customFields."BG_USER_02".value

So the question - can you check what defect.customFields.“BG_USER_02” returns when doing

debug.error("defect.customFields.BG_USER_02 = ${defect.customFields."BG_USER_02".properties}")
SANDEEP ADE commented on 09 February 2022

javax.script.ScriptException: com.exalate.api.exception.IssueTrackerException: defect.customFields.BG_USER_02 = [value:null, type:STRING, class:class com.exalate.basic.domain.hubobject.v1.BasicHubCustomField, uid:BG_USER_02, id:null, locked:false, description:null, name:null]

i got this error

SANDEEP ADE commented on 09 February 2022

Also i added below line

def remoteValue = replica.customFields.“Functional Area - PCM”.value.value to see the value on incoming remote field ,it gave error as Cannot get property ‘value’ on null object

but i see the value in remote replica

  "Functional Area – PCM": {
        "id": 15205,
        "name": "Functional Area - PCM",
        "uid": "15205",
        "type": "OPTION",
        "value": {
          "id": "22009",
          "sequence": 6,
          "value": "PCM",
          "disabled": false,
          "childOptions": []
        }
      }

issue was the “-” symbol ,the field name is Functional Area - PCM

and in script it was types as Functional Area – PCM
