Feature Release - JMWE for Jira Cloud 1.2.35
Our team is thrilled to announce the latest release of JMWE for Jira Cloud. This release includes a completely reworked Get Started app page, further UI updates, and several Bug fixes. The Get Started page has been reworked with additional use cases, including demonstrations of how to create each. Of special note is the new One-click Setup feature for JMWE that will create an Event-based action for you based on some of the use cases showcased there.
App Administration
New ‘Get Started’ including One-click Setups!
The Get Started page for JMWE Cloud has been reworked to include better navigation to the workflow editor and primary JMWE administration pages, as well as new Use Cases for both Event-based Actions and post functions. Most exciting is the new “One-click” setup of featured Event-based Actions! Clicking the Apply use case button (pictured above) will open the Event-based Action editor with the configuration for that Use Case already applied. Just check that the configurations are correct, name your Event-based Action, and click Save!
JMWE menu options in Jira board, issue, and project views
Shortcuts have been added to several native Jira views, including the board (pictured, right), the project sidebar, and the Action menu in the Jira issue view. These shortcuts will take you to the Workflow editor for the board, project, or issue, so you can update or create JMWE extensions!

Bug fixes
The following bugs are fixed in this release:
Copy issue fields missing configuration options
The “Value before transition” option was incorrectly dropped from the Copy issue fields post function during its redesign. This option has been restored.
‘Add to Shared Action’ inconsistent behaviors
In some circumstances, using the browser’s Back button when saving a Shared Action would create a duplicate of the most recently added post function within the action; this would most often happen when using the Back button after adding a post function with the Add to Shared Action button. This has been resolved.
The Add to Shared Action dialog was allowing for Name values with only spaces, creating display problems within the Shared Action. You will not be able to add an extension to a Shared Action unless you give it a name!
Linked Issue Condition does not evaluate correctly
In some instances, the Linked Issue Condition was not correctly verifying the requirements of the Condition against its target issues. This has been resolved.
Invalid warnings for JQL expressions after migration
After performing a migration to Jira Cloud, some extensions with JQL extensions were incorrectly flagged as having errors in their JQL; this included the display of error warnings in the extension configuration page. This has been resolved.
Display issues on some configuration fields
Some configuration fields were being cut off on smaller displays. This has been resolved.
