This condition can be used to hide/show a particular transition from the list of available workflow actions, based on the previous status of the issue.

Sample use cases:

•  Every task should be self-reviewed before passing it to the Project lead for a Peer-Review.

  Add the Previous status condition to the transition leading to Peer-Review status. Select Self-Reviewed from the Previous Status field. Check the Most recent status only and Include current status options.

  
  

•  I have statuses "Open" and "In Progress" that can transition to "Information Requested" status. I want to offer an identically named transition back to the originating status

  Create "Provide Information" transition from Information Requested status to Open status. Create "Provide Information " transition from Information Requested status to In Progress status. Add a space at the end of this transition so that JIRA doesn't complain about duplicate transition names. On the Provide Information transition from Information Requested to Open status add Previous Status Condition to make the transition available only if the previous status was Open Select Open as the Previous status Select Most recent status only On the Provide Information transition from Information Requested to In Progress status add Previous Status Condition to make the transition available only if the previous status was In Progress Select In Progress as the Previous status Select Most recent status only

  
  

Separation of Duties condition

This condition can be used to enforce separation of duties (for SAS-70 compliance), i.e. to make sure that the same user cannot trigger two incompatible transitions on the same issue.

Sample use cases:

•  Prevent a user who has triggered the "Resolve Issue" transition on an issue to trigger the "Close issue" transition.

  Add the Separation of duties condition to the Close issue transition. Select the from_status of the Resolve issue transition from the From Status drop-down. Select the to_status of the Resolve issue transition from the To Status drop-down.

  
  

Hide transition

This condition can be used to hide a transition from the user, so that it can only be triggered by a Transition Issue or Transition Linked Issues post-function.

Sample use cases:

•  Post-functions which transition an issue have a known limitation that the transition should not be associated with any transition screen. How to overcome this?

  Create a duplicate of the original transition without the transition screen. Add the Hide transition condition to this new transition. When you want to trigger the original transition using a post-function, use this new transition instead.

  
  

•  I want to hide a transition "Escalate" that gets auto-triggered when a code fix has been rejected.

  Add the Hide transition condition to the Escalate transition.

  
  

Scripted (Groovy) Condition

This condition can be used to hide/show a transition based on a Groovy expression. 

Sample use cases:

•  Only the Reporter of the issue should be able to close the issue. 

  Add the Scripted (Groovy) condition to the Close issue transition. Write this content in the Groovy script. currentUser.equals(issue.get("reporter"))

  
  

•  Hide the transition from the current user if he does not belong to the Approvers

  Add the Scripted (Groovy) condition to the transition you wish to hide Write this content in the Groovy script. issue.get("Approvers").any { it.getName() == currentUser.getName()}

  
  

•  Block the transition when the Time to resolution is breached.

  Add the Scripted (Groovy) condition to the transition you wish to hide Write this content in the Groovy script. issue.getAsJsonData("Time to resolution").getData()?.getOngoingCycle()?.getBreached()

  
  

Related Issues Condition

This condition can be used to hide/show a particular transition from the list of available transitions, based on the issue's related issues. 

Sample use cases:

•  Block the creation of the Bug if at least one issue with causes link type is not linked to it during the transition

  Add the Related Issue condition to the Create transition. Select Issues linked to the current issue through the following link type option under Which issue(s) Select causes under Issue Link
