Configuration

Source field

Select the field to get the value from (e.g., summary, assignee).

Target field

Select the field the value will be copied to (e.g., new comment, reporter).

Choose the type of the leading delimiter you will enter next. The following options are available:

  • Text (case sensitive)
  • Text (ignoring case)
  • Regular expression (case sensitive)
  • Regular expression (ignoring case)
Expression

Enter plain text and optionally use field codes to insert field values.

Excerpt pattern

Select how the value between the delimiters should be processed. The following options are available:

  • None (copy whole text between the delimiters)
  • Number
  • URL
  • Email
  • Date and time
  • Regular expression (case sensitive)
  • Regular expression (ignoring case)

When selecting one of the Regular expression options, you will be able to enter a regular expression to further process the matched text.

  • Text (case sensitive)
  • Text (ignoring case)

Additional options

You have the following options:

  • Update issue immediately - Each field update results in a dedicated "Issue Updated" event and issue history entry
  • Write protection - Do not overwrite existing values
  • Include leading delimiter - Include it to the output
  • Include trailing delimiter - Include it to the output
Conditional execution

You can optionally specify a logical expression to define the circumstances (or conditions) under which the post function should be executed.

The result of the logical expression must return a boolean value of either:

  • true → the post function will be executed
  • false → the post function will not be executed

Using the conditional operator, even complex or multi-layered conditions can be constructed.

Make sure to learn more about defining logical expressions and browse through the various examples here: Logical mode
