This post-function is obsolete. While you may continue using this post function, which will not be removed from JMWE, we recommend you use the more powerful Comment Issue(s) instead for new automations.

A workflow post-function that creates a comment on all issues linked to the current issue through a selected link type. The text of the comment to be created can be any simple text or a text with Nunjucks annotations.

  1. Click Edit for the workflow that has the transition you wish to add the post-function on.
