Additional product info

The Update or copy field values post function of JWT DC is also available for JWT Cloud (please note the different name 'Update fields'), with minor differences in terms of parameters and options. 

The table below shows the detailed mapping between JWT DC and JWT Cloud.

Migration steps

Add the Update fields post function.

Reconfigure the post function with the help of the following list, providing the necessary basics.

Please find in the table below the mapping of the options for setting individual fields:

One important difference between JWT DC and JWT Cloud is that JWT Cloud uses IDs when setting fields like Checkboxes, Versions, Select lists etc. In those cases you have to care for

  • choosing the respective ID field from the fields offered by the field code injector (please note, that this value is already set as the default when choosing the option "Copy field value from...") or
  • writing a parser expression which returns the ID of the value which shall be set when choosing the option "Set field manually (parser expression)". For single values just enter the ID, e.g. 10001, for lists enter the list of IDs, e.g. 10001,10002,10010

In case of User fields, the Atlassian account ID has to be set.

The table above shows in the Notes which fields are concerned.

Notes 
Automatic-

Only available for the field Assignee.

Selected valueSelected value
Copy field value from current issueCopy field value from current issue

Select a field which returns a valid ID of the value which you like to set. The default for the field to be set is preselected (e.g. if you want to set the field Affects version/s, the field Affects version/s ID is preselected).

Set field manually (parser expression)

Set field manually (parser expression)

In JWTC the parser expression has to return the ID of the value which has to be set (in JWT DC it's the value). In case of field codes, you can just add .id to the field code in order to receive the respective id, e.g. %{issue.cf10004.id} or %{issue.components.id}.

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

Conditional execution

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

Run as

A drop down menu where you can select a field (all available Fields are listed)

The default is Current user

The options are equivalent to the ones in JWT DC but split in two separate entries:

  • Selected user, where you can pick a specific user
  • User in field, where all User fields (e.g. Assignee or Project lead as well as all custom fields of the type User picker (single user) are listed

The default is the same as in JWT DC: Current user

Since only those fields can be selected which hold a user it may happen that the field code from JWT DC cannot be mapped to the respective field in JWT Cloud.
