If you insert a Post-function in the Create transition, you must make sure that you move it down to place it:

• JIRA up to 6.4.x: after the Creates the issue originally built-in function. The exception is any post-function that writes to a system field, such as Set Field Value (with a built-in field), Set Issue Security From User's Project Role, etc.
• JIRA 7.0.0 and above: before the Creates the issue originally built-in function in most cases.

In general, when using a post-function in the Create transition, if it doesn't work as expected, try moving it around the Creates the issue originally built-in function.

Also, please note that any field based on issue links (such as some of those created by the Tempo plugin) are not available during the Create transition (because issue links are created after the initial issue creation).

Several of the following post-functions support conditional execution, in the way of an optional Groovy expression that must return true for the function to run.

This Groovy expression can reference any field value of the current issue. Access to issue field values is achieved by the following syntax:

issue.get("<field_ID>")

For complex conditions, you can also access the JIRA Issue object directly using the issueObject variable.

Finally, you can use the log variable to output information into atlassian-jira.log. For example:

log.error("Something went wrong");
