The issue list parsing mode, just like the JQL mode, lets you define a target selection of issues. It is being used in Post functions and Automation actions, that allow you to create or update multiple issues

The output has to be a valid issue list as defined in the Data types section.

All JWT expression parser functions, that return an issue list can be used. Additionally, issue lists can be constructed using functions like issueKeysToIssueList().


Example expressions

Parser expressionDescription


subtasks()


This example returns a list of all sub-tasks of the current issue.

To achieve this, the following functions are used:


issueKeysToIssueList("CRM-12, HT-254")


This example returns an issue list of issues with keys CRM-12 and HT-254:

["CRM-12", "HT-254"]

To achieve this, the following functions are used:


filterByFieldValue(subtasks(), {issue.dueDate}, =, null)


This example returns an issue list with all sub-tasks that don't have a due date set.

To achieve this, the following functions are used:


getIssuesFromProjects("CRM, HT")


This example returns an issue list of all issues in project CRM and HT.

To achieve this, the following functions are used:


Make sure to read all about working with Lists as they come with many extremely useful JWT expression parser functions.

List functions can also be used in the Advanced text mode. The difference is, that the output will be a flat text instead of an issue list.

The main advantage over the advanced text mode is, that you can use the returned elements of the issue list as Seeds.
