Migrate 'Condition based on cascading select list value'

The Condition based on cascading select list value of JWT DC is not yet available in JWT Cloud.

However, it can be implemented easily using the Jira expression condition.

Migration steps

Rebuild the expression

The Jira expression which has to be built is depending on the parameter values of the JWT DC condition. The following table shows how to obtain the individual components of the resulting Jira expression and it is described how to assemble these parts into a Jira expression.

Migration details

JWT DC

JWT DC option

JWT Cloud

Notes

Field

Select the corresponding cascading select field from the Field injector.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044

The list of available field codes differs between JWT DC and JWT Cloud.

Option level

Parent

Add ?.value to the field code selected in the Field parameter.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.value

Child

Add ?child?.value to the field code selected in the Field parameter.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value

Comparison operator

is equal

Add = to the expression built so far.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value =

isn't equal

Add != to the expression built so far.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value !=

contains

Add .includes() to the expression built so far.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value.includes()

doesn't contain

Add .includes() to the expression built so far and put the negation operator ! in the beginning of the expression.

Example

!issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value.includes()

starts with

Add .indexOf() == 0 to the expression built so far.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value.indexOf() == 0

doesn't start with

Add .indexOf() !== 0 to the expression built so far.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value.indexOf() != 0

ends with

Add .match("$") != null to the expression built so far.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value.match("$") != null

doesn't end with

Add .match("$") == null to the expression built so far.

Example

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value.match("$") == null

Comparison value

If field codes are used within the comparison value, they have to be replaced with the corresponding Jira expression field codes (using the field code injector) and concatenated with the remaing text using "+". All other texts have to be quoted (enclosed by "").

This value is then put either as right-hand operator or as parameter in the ()-part of the current expression (depending on the comparison operator which is used - in case of "ends with"/"doesn't end with" right before the "$").

Examples

Comparison operator	Comparison value	Jira expression
starts with	"label"	issue?.customfield_10044?.value.indexOf("label") == 0
contains	First %{issue.description}	issue?.customfield_10044? .value .includes("First"+issue.description.plaintext)
doesn't equal	3	issue?.customfield_10044?.value != "3"

Examples

JWT DC parameter values

Jira expression

Parameter	Value
Field	%{issue.cf10003}
Option level	Parent
Comparison operator	=
Comparison value	%{issue.summary}

issue?.customfield_10003?.value == issue.summary

Parameter	Value
Field	%{issue.cf10042}
Option level	Child
Comparison operator	starts with
Comparison value	First

issue?.customfield_10042?.child?value.indexOf("First") == 0

Parameter	Value
Field	%{issue.cf10042}
Option level	Child
Comparison operator	doesn't contain
Comparison value	Child value of %{issue.key}

!issue?.customfield_10042?.child?value.includes("Child value of "+issue.key)

Parameter	Value
Field	%{issue.cf10042}
Option level	Child
Comparison operator	doesn't end with
Comparison value	%{issue.key} value

issue?.customfield_10044?.child?.value.match(issue.key+" value$") == null
