Enhancements

Increased speed for JQL indexing

  • Added (auto)parallelization to the indexing.

  • Added a new parameter to the reindex function admReindex(jql [, async]). If set to false, it will not run in the background.

Update parent issue field using SIL script

Users are now able to update the parent field of the current issue to the specified issue key, using the following syntax:

%key%.parent = "NewIssueKey";
Some key points:

  • The %key% represents the current issue key.

  • The parent field is set to the desired issue key enclosed in quotes.

  • This can be used to link the current issue to a parent issue in the system.

Let's look at a simple example:

Code Block
// Current issue key is PROJ-123
%key%.parent = "TEST-23";

This would update the parent field of the current issue PROJ-123 to be the issue TEST-23.


Bug fixes

The following bugs are fixed in this release:

  • Fixed project key search in context configuration.
    The automatically generated JQL query included unexpected project keys, causing incorrect query results until the additional project key condition was manually removed. This fix ensures the automatically generated query only references the relevant project(s) without including unrelated project keys.

  • Fixed an issue where consecutive SIL post-function executions corrupted rich text field formatting.
    When a transition with a SIL script updated a rich text field multiple times, the formatting would become corrupted, causing display issues in subsequent runs. The fix ensures proper preservation of both content and formatting, maintaining field integrity across all transition executions.

  • Fixed time zone handling in Date fields.
    The system incorrectly considered the timezone for Date fields when it should only have been applied to DateTime fields.
