Create a personal space for a new employee

Use case

In this use case, a dedicated ticket is created for a candidate during the onboarding process that follows the employment workflow. If both parts agree to work together, we will use this template to create a space in the external Confluence instance for the new employee.

Configuration

Add the Execute remote action post function to the desired transition or create a new transition.

Create remote action

Select the action to get started. Choose Create a space.

Based on the external Jira instance you can select either Cloud or On-prem template.

Select connection

Choose an existing connection to the external Confluence instance or create a new connection.

Customize your action

Set action parameters

The values used below are created for the example only. Please provide real input from your instance for making the use case realistic.

Space key

Set it manually using the expression editor as follows:

NEWEMPL

Space name

Set it manually using the expression editor as follows:

New employee

From the used template, you can retrieve the Space ID and/or the Link to created space and save them in any field. For this use case, we will save the link to created space in the description field.

Optionally, you can use the Update issue fields (optional) section to save the response body or parts of it into some field.

Update issue fields (optional)

Select the field to be set.

Choose Description.

Set the value.

Choose Link to created space.
