Users are/aren't in project role (validator)

This validator evaluates the project role membership of a user or multiple users stored in a custom field or a system field.

Configuration

Source field

Select the field containing the users that should be checked.

When a Group Picker (single or multiple groups) is selected, all users in the group(s) are evaluated.

Mode

Further refine the project role membership using the following options:

All users in field are at least in one of the selected project roles
All users in field are at least in each of the selected project roles
All users in field are at least out of one in the selected project roles
All users in field are in none of the selected projects
At least one user in field is at least in one of the selected project roles
At least one user in field is in each of the selected project roles
At least one user in field is at least out of one of the selected project roles
At least one user in field is in none of the selected project roles

Project role

Select the project roles to be evaluated.

Additional options

Check Source field must not be empty if you want to ensure, that the source field must actually contain users. If the source field is empty the validator will fail.

If unchecked, the validator will pass, if the source field is empty and any of the "All users..." options is selected in the Mode parameter above.

Validation options

The validation can be skipped under certain circumstances Select one or multiple scenarios in which you want to skip the validation to ensure the correct execution of certain operations.

Option	Description
Skip validation for JWT post functions	If the transition is triggered by a JWT post function, e.g. through Transition issue, the validation will be skipped.
Skip validation for bulk operations	If the transition is triggered by a bulk operation, the validation will be skipped.
Skip validation for clone operations	If the create transition is triggered by a clone operation, the validation will be skipped.
Skip validation for mail handlers	If the create transition is triggered by a mail handler, the validation will be skipped.

Error message

You can optionally define a custom error message in case the validator fails, which will be shown to the user trying to execute the transition.

You have the following options:

Location

Define where the error message should be displayed. By default, the message will be shown at the top of the transition screen, or in case there is no transition screen, as a popup.

Alternatively, you can locate the message below any other field. This option only makes sense, if there is a transition screen defined for the specific transition.

Due to limitations in Jira Service Management, the location parameter will be ignored on Jira Service Management related screens. The location parameter only works for the Create Issue transition screen if JSD version 4.10 or higher is being used.

Message

Define the content of the error message in Basic text mode or Advanced text mode.

In comparison to e.g. our calculated custom fields it is not possible to display HTML here. Displaying links to specific issues, for example, is not possible inside the error message.
