The Format field value post function formats the current value of a field using a set of formatting operations.

Find and replace

  • Regular expression (case sensitive)
  • regular expression (ignoring case)
Replace mode

Choose between the following two options:

Expressions

Enter plain text or a valid regular expression and optionally use field codes to insert field values.

You can try your expressions by clicking on the run button on the top right of the expression box.

Additional options

You have the option to update issues immediately (each field update results in a dedicated "Issue Updated" event and issue history entry).

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.
