Are you using JMWE for Cloud and want to learn how to use this post-function? Head to our documentation here. |
When you add this post-function to a transition and trigger it, the add-on sets the selected field of the current issue to the specified value. The value can be either a:
This bug has been raised by <%=issue.get("reporter").getName()%> with <%=issue.get("priority").getName()%> priority. Act accordingly.
in the value box.issue.get("reporter")
in the value box.See the Expected Value tab of the Groovy help editor
or refer to the documentation to know more about the expected value in the above cases.
Run as user: Select one of the following options to set the author of the action performed by this post-function as:
Current user: The user transitioning the issue.
Specific user: The user specified in the select-list provided. Start typing into the field to select a user from the list of auto-suggestions.
User in field: The user specified in a user picker field of the issue being transitioned. Select one of the user fields from the list of available options in the field provided.
User from script: The user returned by the Groovy script specified in Script
. This script should return either the Username of the user or an ApplicationUser object.
Examples:
"jdoe"
- Username
issue.get("assignee")
- the current issue's Assignee
To execute this post-function based on the result of a groovy expression see Conditional execution/validation using a Groovy expression.
By default, all errors (Java Exceptions) raised by this post-function, including those raised by custom Groovy scripts, will be logged in the JIRA log file but will not be reported to the user and will not prevent the transition from completing.
However, when designing new workflows or troubleshooting them, it is more convenient to be notified immediately of any such error during the execution of the transition. On development and staging Jira instances, you can activate error reporting for all JMWE post-functions on the JMWE configuration page, and it is recommended to do so. But on production Jira instances, you might want to show errors only for the post-function(s) being worked on, in order to avoid disrupting other workflows. To make errors raised by the current post-function prevent the transition from completing and show the error in the browser, select Make transition fail when an error occurs in this post-function
