🚀 JWT 3.0 is out 🚀 

The app was completely overhauled, and so was the documentation: Jira Workflow Toolbox (Server/Data Center) Home

The page you are viewing is still valid for all app versions prior to 3.0.

[2015-02-06] Released Jira Workflow Toolbox 2.1.26

New features

  • Support for custom field "Epic Status", provided by Jira Agile. It can be updated by all post-functions provided by Jira Workflow Toolbox.
  • Support for custom field "Request Participants", provided by the most recent version of Service Desk. It can be updated by all post-functions provided by Jira Workflow Toolbox. A very interesting usage example.
  • New parser functions:
    • stringToDate(string s, *timezone* t) , which returns a numeric value with the date-time represented by a string. It's very useful for working with dates stored in text fields and in project properties. A very interesting usage example.
    • userFullName(string username) , which returns a string with the full name of the user whose name is stored in user. A usage example.
    • userEmail(string username), which returns a string with the email of the user whose name is stored in user.
    • first(list l) : element , which receives a list of string, number or issue and returns the first element of the list.
    • last(list l) : element , which receives a list of string, number or issue and returns the last element of the list.

Improvements

  • Post-function " Break issue link" has been greatly improved: now issue links where current issue doesn't take part can also be broken. JQL queries and/or comma separated lists of issue keys can be used for setting issues at both ends of the issue links.
  • Issue #100 - Post-function " Add a new option to a Cascading Select" has been added support not only for inserting child options, but also root options. Added support not only for custom fields, but for virtual fields (among them Ephemeral fields). Included a parameter for defining the behavior when new option already exists (4 different behaviors). Included a parameter for alphabetically sorting field options if desired.
  • Post-function "Add a new option to a select list" has been renamed to " Add a new option to a Select List". Added support for adding fields to Multi-Select Lists and Checkboxes custom field. Added support not only for custom fields, but for virtual fields (among them Ephemeral fields). Included a parameter for defining the behavior when new option already exists (4 different behaviors). Included a parameter for alphabetically sorting field options if desired.
  • Condition "Cascading select comparer" now supports not only Cascading Select, but also Multi-Level Cascading (only 2 levels, but you always can use " Boolean condition and validator with math. date-time or text-string terms" if need to compare deeper levels), and Jira Database Values custom fields.
  • Condition "Only user in custom field" has been renamed to "Only user in a field", since it has been added support to work not only with custom fields, but with virtual fields (among them Ephemeral fields).
  • Condition "Except user in custom field" has been renamed to "Except user in a field", since it has been added support to work not only with custom fields, but with virtual fields (among them Ephemeral fields).

Bug fixes

  • Post-functions "Read fields from linked issues or subtasks" and "Write field on linked issues or subtasks" didn't work with issues linked in current transition.
  • Parser function toNumber(string s) was not working correctly.
  • Exception thrown when reading virtual field "Last comment's visibility restriction" under certain circumstances.
