## Examples

### Example 1

If you want to enable a field to the Admin user (and keep it disabled for all other users), use the **lfEnable** function.

```javascript
if(assignee == "admin") {
   lfEnable("issueType");
}
```

To disable the field, use the lfDisable function.

### Example 2 - Advanced Example

This example demonstrates of enabling a field that was previously disabled by a Live Field configuration. The example below waits for a change to the priority field, during an inline edit, and if the value is Low or Medium, reenables the issueType field.

```javascript
//Live Field Configuration
lfDisable("issueType");
lfWatch("priority", {"issueType"}, "hook.sil", {"inlineEditSaveComplete"});
```

For more information about the other functions used in this example, see lfDisable and lfWatch.

```javascript
//hook.sil
if(priority == "Low" || priority == "Medium") {
   lfEnable("issueType");
} else {
    lfDisable("issueType");
}
```
