When you add this post-function to a transition and trigger the transition, the add-on will trigger the specified transition on each issue linked to the current issue through the selected link type, assuming that transition is valid for the linked issue's current status, and it is available to the current or the specified user.
Customize this post-function using the additional options provided as a part of the post-function. The options are:
Run As
- Run as current user
The current user will be the author of the transition triggered by the post-function.
- Run as add-on user
The add-on user will be the author of the transition triggered by the post-function.
- Run as this user
Any user selected in this field will be the author of the transition triggered by the post-function.
| Info |
|---|
The options Run as add-on user and Run as this user are useful if the current user doesn't have the permission to transition the linked issue(s). |
| Note |
|---|
The triggered transition (in each linked issue's workflow) should not be associated with a transition screen, especially if it includes required fields because the transition screen will not be displayed. If you want to trigger a transition that normally uses a transition screen, see here. |
| Info |
|---|
The transition can be specified by name so that the transition can be found regardless of each linked issue's actual workflow, or by ID if disambiguation is required. |
