Usage tips and additional notes

  • Use variable syntax as @<variable>@ in your commands. For example: @entry@, @issueId@, or @runDate@.

  • Variable names are case-sensitive.

  • Variables are available only within the current run scope or a parent run action. Sibling runFromList executions do not share variables.

  • Variables are set based on the last created (for create, add, etc.) or last referenced (from get, runFromList, etc.) item.

  • Use the getReplacementVariableList action to list currently defined variables, excluding built-in variables like server or runDate.

  • Use the setReplacementVariableList action to define your own custom replacement variables.

  • The reference parameter allows setting custom variable names based on the result of an action. These are useful when you want to retain a specific value throughout a longer script.
