This post function is a general purpose tool for setting almost any kind of field (text, select, radio button, multi-select, checkboxes, cascading select, multi-cascading select, user, multi-user, dates, date-time, number, etc). Although, in the case of field types Number, Date, Date-Time and Priority (when using associated numeric value) it’s usually preferable to use the Mathematical and date-time expression calculator post function, since you can enter complex math and time expressions.

Choosing the suitable target field you can also change issue reporter, assignee, due date, status, priority, resolution, original estimate, remaining estimate, time spent, labels, epic link, etc.

Configuration

Target field

Select the field to be written with the resulting parsed text.

Expression

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

You can also choose between the basic text and advanced text parsing mode.

Additional options

You have the following two options (multi-choice is possible):

OptionDescription
Write protectionDo not overwrite the target field if it's already set.
Update issue immediatelyThe field update results in a dedicated "Issue Update" 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.

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