    replica.customFields."Select list custom field name"  = issue.customFields."Select list custom field name"

    You can add a new comment including only the select list string value or format the comment with custom formatting. In both cases, use addComment commentHelper method.

    See examples below:

    • Add the source side select list custom field value into a new comment
    1 issue.comments = commentHelper.addComment(replica.customFields."Select list custom field name".value.value, issue.comments)
    • Add the source side select list custom field value as a new comment with custom text.
    1 issue.comments = commentHelper.addComment(
         "The Select from RED side is: "+ replica.customFields."Select list custom field name".value.value, issue.comments
      )
