This post-function is deprecated. You should instead use the Copy field value to parent issue post-function together with the |
A workflow post-function that adds the value(s) of a selected multi-valued field to the same field of the issue's parent issue. |
To add the 'Add field value to parent issue' post-function to a transition:
Post Functions
in the properties panel.Add
post function
.Add field value to parent issue
from the list of post-functions.Add
to add the post-function on the transition.Field
drop-down.Add
to add the post-function to the transition.When you add this post-function to a transition and trigger the transition, the add-on adds the value(s) of the selected multi-valued field to the same field of the issue's parent issue.
Input a Groovy expression that returns true
if the post-function should run. For more information see Conditional execution using 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. For example on the 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
.
If you want to show all the errors, either only to the admins or to all users, configure the option globally on the JMWE configuration page. For example, on development and staging Jira instances, you can activate error reporting for all JMWE post-functions, to display all the errors and it is recommended to do so, and on production Jira instances you might want to activate error reporting only to administrators so that they can be made aware of configuration errors.
When the option is selected on a post-function, it overrides the configuration on the JMWE configuration page. |
