This is a point release of the plugin adding new plugin capabilities based essentially on version 3.6 of the ACLI. Point releases are used for plugins when improvements warrant that are independent of the ACLI version. This ensures the family based number system continues to indicate the base ACLI version embedded in the plugin.

Warning

A substitution variable incompatibility was introduced in this release due to the introduction of the substitution variables shared with other similar workflow plugins. Previous use of pattern1_1 and similar should be changed to cli_pattern1_1 and similar. The pattern1_n and pattern2_n variables now refer to the conditioning patterns. Sorry for the inconvenience.

New Capabilities

Consistent with similar capabilities pioneered in the CSOT and extended with CW, given users more options for controlling their workflow.

  1. Powerful regular expression based pattern matching conditions. These can be used to determine if the CLI action should be run (post function) or the transition should continue (validator).
  2. Substitution variables for constructing CLI actions or user messaging. Extended to be consistent with related workflow plugins mentioned above.
    • Access to field values from original issue (issue being transitioned)
    • Access to field values from parent of original issue
    • Access to transition field values (validator)
  3. JQL query can be used to provide other substitution variables.
