Info

JMWE shows an error message on the issue view if any error occurs during the execution of the post-function. This message is displayed only if the current user is a Jira administrator. 

When you add this post-function to a transition and trigger it, the add-on checks the specified condition against each linked issue of the current issue. If the condition evaluates to any text except false or an empty string, it will remove the issue link. If not, it will not remove the link.

Condition 

Input a condition in Condition using Nunjucks annotations. You can insert issue, linkedIssue, transition, linkTypeName, currentUser and now variables in your condition and test it using the Nunjucks tester.

Examples:

  • {{linkTypeName == "blocks"}} returns true for all linked issues linked to the current issue with blocks link type

  • {{linkedIssue.fields.status.name == "Rejected"}} returns true for all linked issues that are in the Rejected status.

Customize this post-function using the additional options provided as part of the post-function. The options are:
