The templates will add scripts to associated events within Jira.
Setting up the Listener Templates
Listener scripts are designed to live above projects and workflows so those elements do not need to be specified with all listener scripts. However, listeners still need to be associated with events inside Jira. The first two steps to setting up a listener template is to select an event to use as a script trigger and as an associated user.
NOTE: The “Run as” setting is not required. If used, the script will always run under the specified user. If not specified, the script will run as the user who triggered the event.
Testing the Script
Testing listeners can be quite simple. In order to test you should perform an action that will trigger the specific event associated with the trigger then check to see if the desired action was performed. However, if not, troubleshooting listener scripts can be a little tricky, see this section about troubleshooting scripts.
