The Validation of sub-tasks is not yet available in JWT Cloud but can be implemented easily using a Jira expression validator.
Migration steps
Add a Jira expression validator.
Build a matching Jira expression by migrating the parameters of the Validation of sub-tasks using this template:
let ITI = [];
let SI = [];
let RI = [];
let FVE = (issue => issue);
let MI = 0;
let MA = 1000;
let ITA = false;
let SA = false;
let RA = false;
let FVEA = false;
let CON = (issue => (
(ITI.length == 0 || ITI.includes(issue?.issueType?.name)) &&
(SI.length == 0 || SI.includes(issue?.status?.name)) &&
(RI.length == 0 || RI.includes(issue?.resolution?.name)) &&
FVE(issue)
));
issue.subtasks.filter(CON).length >= MI
&& issue.subtasks.filter(CON).length <= MA
&& issue.subtasks.every(issue => (
CON(issue) ||
(ITA && !ITI.includes(issue?.issueType?.name)) ||
(SA && !SI.includes(issue?.status?.name)) ||
(RA && !RI.includes(issue?.resolution?.name)) ||
(FVEA && !FVE(issue))
))
The following table shows how to obtain the individual components of the resulting Jira expression.

| JWT DC option |
| Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Filter by issue type | In line 1, add the issue type names to be filtered to the list. | Example: let ITI = ["Submission", "Mail"]; | |
| Filter by status | In line 2, add the status names to be filtered to the list. | Example: let SI = ["In Progress", "To Do"]; | |
| Filter by resolution | In line 3, add the resolution names to be filtered to the list. | Example: let RI = ["Won't do", "Duplicates"]; | |
| Filter by field value | In line 4, adopt the function according to your needs by adding the respective Jira expression. It has to return a logical value. A list of field codes can be found in Field codes. For more information about Jira expression, please have a look at Atlassian's documentation. | Examples: let FVE = (issue => issue?.attachments?.length >0 ) let FVE = (issue => issue?.project.key == 'PRJ' ) | |
| Minimum number of sub-tasks | In line 5, change the minimum number of sub-tasks if necessary (the default is set to 0) | Example: let MI = 3 | |
| Maximum number of sub-tasks | In line 6, change the maximum number of sub-tasks if necessary (the default is set to1000) | Example: let MA = 5 | |
Additional options | Allow unselected issue types | In line 7, change the value to true, if you want to allow unselected issue types. | Example: let ITA = true; |
| Allow unselected statuses | In line 8, change the value to true, if you want to allow unselected statuses. | Example: let SA = true; | |
| Allow unselected resolutions | In line 9, change the value to true, if you want to allow unselected resolutions. | Example: let RA = true; | |
| Allow unsatisfied field value filter | In line 10, change the value to true, if you want to allow an unsatisfied field value filter. | Example: let FVEA = true; |
Due to the different architecture, it may happen that the condition gets too complex. This is the case when many fields are checked. The condition cannot be saved, and a corresponding error message will be displayed. If that's the case, the condition has to be split up into two or more.
Validation options
This parameter is not available in JWT Cloud.
Error message
In JWT Cloud, only a fixed text without field codes or translations is supported.
Examples
| Jira expression | ||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Use case All sub-tasks in the Closed status must have a specific resolution
| let ITI = []; let SI = ["Closed"]; let RI = ["Done"]; let FVE = (issue => issue); let MI = 0; let MA = 1000; let ITA = true; let SA = true; let RA = false; let FVEA = false; ... | ||||||||||||||||
Use case Close parent issue only when all sub-tasks are closed
| let ITI = []; let SI = ["Closed","Done"]; let RI = []; let FVE = (issue => issue); let MI = 0; let MA = 1000; let ITA = true; let SA = false; let RA = true; let FVEA = false; ... | ||||||||||||||||
Use case An issue must have at least 3 resolved Test Cases
| let ITI = ["Test case"]; let SI = []; let RI = ["Done"]; let FVE = (issue => issue); let MI = 3; let MA = 1000; let ITA = true; let SA = true; let RA = false; let FVEA = false; ... |
