When you add this condition to a transition, the add-on checks the result of the Jira expression. If the expression
returns true, the transition will be available to the user, and if it
returns false
or a non-boolean value, the
transition will be hidden.
Use case
A typical use of this workflow condition is to hide the transition when a field of the issue has a specific value or the current user belongs to a specific group.
Consider a use case where you want to show the “Approve” transition only when the current user is in the “Approvers” field. To configure this:
Add the “Build-your-own (scripted) condition” to the “Approve” transition
Input the following code under “Jira Expression”
Code Block !! issue.customfield_10002 && issue.customfield_10002.some(it => it == user)
Note it is suggested to use the “Issue Fields” tab of the Jira expression editor, select the field from the list and the Jira expressions editor help system shows examples on accessing and testing the field value.
