Features used to implement the example



Example: Combine the values of several Multi-User picker fields

I have added to Jira Workflow Toolbox 2.0.20_beta_2 the possibility to insert more than one +,- operator in a sole setting operation. This way you can achieve to do the merge of the values of the 5 multi-user picker fields, and remove the values of the other 2 multi-user picker fields. I show you how to do it.

Let's suppose we want to set a multi-user picker field Team with the combined values of five multi-user picker fields Users AUsers B... Users E minus the values of other two multi-user picker fields Users F and Users G. You should do it like that:


Once configured, the transition will look like this:


I have used an auxiliary field "Ephemeral string 1" because of a bug in the plugin that prevents you to use Copy parsed text to a field to write a custom field (not a virtual field) in the first post-function of a transition. If you do it, nothing will be written on the custom field. That is why I write on a virtual field "Ephemeral string 1" in first place, and then write the value to custom field "Team". If you move the assignment to a second, third, fourth... place in post-function execution order, you can do it in a sole post-function.
