You can write your text in basic mode, and then switch to advanced mode using Automatic parsing mode converter. The text to be parsed will be automatically rewritten as a string expression. Now, you can simply make the modifications you require, making use of text formatting functions, or inserting math or time expressions where needed. To update issue fields the parsing result will be cast to the expected value e.g. a user name will be cast to a user to update a user field like the assignee field. |
