The logical parsing mode is used to construct logical expressions.
To construct these logical expressions, you can combine different elements, such as field codes, JWT expression parser functions and operators. The result must always return one of two distinct BOOLEANvalues:
true
or
false
.Â
The main JWT features where you will be using the logical parsing mode are:
- Conditional execution
- Logical condition
- Logical validator
- Boolean condition
- JWT JQL functions
Example expressions
Parser expression | Description |
---|---|
3 < 5 | This example returns:
|
3 > 5 | This example returns:
|
Expressions can be combined or linked using operators to construct complex logical comparisons.
Parser expression | Description |
---|---|
3 < 5 AND 7 > 5 | This example returns:
|
%{issue.assignee} = %{issue.reporter} | This example returns:
|
The operators, their meaning and the applicable data types you can use them with are listed below. A comparison always returns a BOOLEAN value. The table below lists all logical operators that can be used for linking logical terms in an expression. Logical operators take logical terms (which return BOOLEAN values) as operands and can thus be built using: Logical operators can only be used in logical expressions in the Logical mode or in combination with the conditional operator. The conditional operator It basically allows you to construct the following expression: IF logical_expression
The conditional operator is extremely helpful when being used in calculated fields. Comparison operators
