Test your expression
It is highly recommended to test your Jira expression before publishing the workflow.
To test an expression simply select an existing issue ad click on .
As a result you might encounter four different responses:
Response: The value returned by the expressionJira expressions usually expect the return of a boolean true or false.
If you just enter a field code without any comparison operator you will simply get the value as a response!
In this use case "Task" will be returned as the current issue type.
Response: true Response: falseThis response indicates that the expression itself is valid but the test issue (KANBAN-1) is NOT in a status called "ToDo"
Response: error
There is a syntax error in the specified expression.
In this case a missing ' at the end of the expression.
