  • Comment issueA workflow post-function that creates a comment on the current issue. The text of the comment can be either a text, optionally including a Groovy template markup, or the result of the evaluation of a Groovy expression.
  • Comment related issuesA workflow post-function that creates a comment on all issue's related issues (such as linked issues, Stories of an Epic, Epic of a Story, subtasks of an issue, issues returned by a Groovy script or a JQL search, etc.). The text of the comment can be either a text, optionally including a Groovy template markup, or the result of the evaluation of a Groovy expression.
  • Copy issue fieldsA workflow post function that allows you to copy the values of one or more fields from the current issue or related issue(s) or a set of filtered issues to the specified destination issue(s).
  • Copy field value from related issuesA workflow post-function that sets the value of a field to the value of a field in related issues (such as linked issues, Stories of an Epic, Epic of a Story, subtasks of an issue, issues returned by a Groovy script or a JQL search, etc.)
  • Copy field value from parent issueA workflow post-function that sets the value(s) of a selected field with value(s) from the same field of an issue's parent issue.
  • Copy field value to related issuesA workflow post-function that copies the value of a field to all related issues (such as linked issues, Stories of an Epic, Epic of a Story, subtasks of an issue, issues returned by a Groovy script or a JQL search, etc.)
