How to create dynamic field in Jira?

Question

I want to create some dynamic field in Jira similar to what we do in JavaScript. e.g. there is a dropdown list, with value a, b and c. If I select a, there will pop up some fields only for a; if I select b, there will pop up some fields only for b. Can this be done in Jira, or are there any plugins that solve this problem?

Accepted Answer

You could use the JIRA Behaviours Plugin to change any field according to any selected field, for example:

```
FormField dropdown = getFieldByName("My Dropdown")
FormField other= getFieldByName("Other field")

if (dropdown.getFormValue() == 'A') {
 other.setHidden(false) // set custom filed vlaues
 other.setFormValue("A choosen")
} else {
 other.setHidden(true) // hide any fields you like
}
```
