Additional support for copying source fields

Support for the following special source fields has been added to JSU Cloud:

  • *** current user ***

  • *** previous user ***

  • *** currentdatetime current datetime ***

These fields have been added to facilitate migrations from JSU Server/Data Center to JSU Cloud. You can select special copy sources when defining a field value to copy when configuring a Create a Linked Issue, Linked Transition, and Copy Value From Other Field post functions. For example, you can copy the use the new *** Current User *** field to set the ID of the original issue’s Reporter to the Reporter field in the newly created issue.

Learn more about special sources for copying field values in the JSU Cloud documentation.

Improved support for migrating JSU Server/Data Center data with Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA)

...

In JSU Server/Data Center the Create a Linked Issue post function includes an option for a custom field to require a value to allow the creation of a new issue. This acts as a condition for the post function. Previously, following a migration of this configuration you would need to reconfigure the post function with a JSU Cloud precondtion.

Learn more about migrating your JSU rules in our guide to JCMA.

Improvements

  • Reduced the threshold for infinite loop detection:
    The time threshold for determining when an infinite loop is identified for a JSU rule has been reduced from 5 minutes to 2 minutes for the Create a Linked Issue post function. It remains 1 minute for the Linked Transition and Followup Transition post functions. See Infinite Loop Detection to learn more.
