The user property value condition allows Jira workflow developers to compare user property value with a fixed value or field value. This powerful mechanism lets you join user properties with the ability to execute workflow transitions. It works perfectly with Set user property value post function and Set issue field from user property value post function.

Using this condition you can do the following:

  • Allow the Reporter's manager to execute a transition.
  • Transition an issue only if the current user is in the same department as listed in the issue field.
  • Transition an issue only if the reporter's grade meets the given criteria.

OptionDescription
ReporterA person who entered (directly or indirectly) the issue into Jira. It can be different than the issue's creator.

Source of value

It's a method of comparison. There are two options available:

  • Fixed value - compares user property value to a given fixed value.

  • Field value - compares user property value to the value from a selected issue field. 

Select field/Fixed value

It's an option to provide the expected issue field or the fixed text value. If the property value is the same as field/fixed value, the condition passes, otherwise, it fails.

If user property does NOT exist

Condition behavior when the property value cannot be found for a given user.
