Condition-Based Post Function

Introduction

This post function allows you to execute any post function when a condition is met. The condition may come from a transition condition or you can use any other condition available in Jira.

It can be used for e.g.:

• Updating an issue field if another field already has some value
• Assigning issue to the current user if he or she is in some group

There is a similar post function that uses a validator instead of a condition. It can be very useful. Please check Validator Based Post Function.

Post function parameters

This post function takes the following parameters:

• Condition
  
• Evaluate condition on - a method of condition checking
  
  • Original issue - an issue before the changes made on the transition screen
    
  • Issue after transition - an issue after the changes made on the transition screen
    
• Inverse condition - allows you to run a post function when a condition is not met
  
• Post function - a post function to be executed

Please note that conditions and post functions may require some extra parameters.
