typeinfo

This function returns the result of a given JMESPATH JMESPath which is applied to a JSON as a text. In case a number, a list, a JSON object or a logical value is returned by JMESPATHJMESPath, the returned text of the function getFromJSON() can be converted accordingly, e.g. with toStringList().

It unfolds its power when combined with the post function Execute remote action, where fields are set with the response of the executed action (or parts of it).

Customfield 10011 is a multiline text field and holds the result of a previously executed action (by Execute remote action) which created a project in a Jira instance:


Code Block
{
    "self": "https://your-instance.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/project/10020",
    "id": 10020,
    "key": "PRJ"
}

This example returns:
PRJ


Code Block
languagebash
linenumberstrue
%{getFromJSON("{\"key\":\"value\"}","key")}


In this case, a JSON is given as text - quotes have to be escaped with \

This example returns:
