This article explains how to associate a workflow to a project using the Jira Command Line Interface app.
Instructions
Use the associateWorkflow action to associate a workflow to the workflow scheme using name and workflowScheme as required parameters.
- name: Name of the workflow
- workflowScheme: Workflow scheme name or id. Use blank for default scheme.
Execute the CLI command:
--action associateWorkflow --name "Associate_Workflow_1" --workflowScheme "Associate_Workflow_Scheme_1"
For this example, we had created a new workflow named Associate_Workflow_1 and workflow schema named Associate_Workflow_Scheme_1 as shown below:
The following output appears upon execution of the above cli command:
Output on the terminal:
Workflow 'Associate_Workflow_1' associated to 'Associate_Workflow_Scheme_1'.
- Output in Jira:
- If you are creating new workflow and workflow scheme on global level, they can be viewed in inactive workflows and inactive workflow schemes respectively.
- You will be able to associate inactive Workflow scheme to inactive workflow.
- You will be able to associate inactive Workflow scheme to active workflow.
- It is recommended to test this scenario in a test environment before implementing it in production.
