Post function parameters
This post function takes the following parameters:
- Issue relation and JQL - described at the bottom of the page
- Field - a list of Jira standard and custom fields.
- Add source value(s) to destination field - ticking this option will add missing options to the destination custom field (if it's dictionary-based) or append a source text to an existing destination field value. (Works only in relevant fields e.g. this option remains hidden for the assignee)
- Set issue field value - a condition to check on a field
- Always
- Only if empty
- Only if not empty
- Text value/Option value- a desired field value after the post function execution.
Working with related issues Related issues can be selected by using two inputs: Issue Relation - where you can choose a relation with the current (transitioned) issue; JQL - you can put your JQL text to filter some issues from the results. If you leave the JQL Field empty, all issues in a given relation are taken into account. In the example above you wanted to execute a workflow function on subtasks of the current issue and take additionally only the ones with the "Sub-task" and priority="High" type. In the JQL field you can put some text tags to be replaced with actual values of the current (transitioned) issue: $$CURRENT_DATETIME$$ $$ASSIGNEE$$ $$CURRENT_STATUS_CATEGORY$$ The JQL field has a built-in validation feature. If your query is incorrect, you will see a red sign next to the JQL field and an error description as shown below:
