Cloud Migration Resources
Planning a Jira Cloud migration? These resources can help you get started:
→ JSU Cloud features – Review Cloud features and understand key differences between DC and Cloud.
→ Migration support from Appfire – Learn how we can help you migrate smoothly.
Value Field condition
This is the documentation for JSU for Jira Data Center. If you are using JSU on Jira Cloud, see our JSU Cloud documentation.
Description
The Value Field condition compares the current value of a field against a predefined value. It can compare strings, numbers, or option IDs. For select fields, you can compare either by string or option ID. The ID may be preferable since the name, or string, of an option may change over time, the ID does not. If a field can have several values (like components), matching one value is sufficient to pass the check.
Configuration
You must specify the field and value that will be the prerequisite for the check.
If you choose the comparison type String, only =and!=are valid options.
You can leave the value empty and choose comparison type !=, to specify that a given field is required for the condition.
For date fields without time, use the format yyyy-MM-ddfor values, and for those with time, yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm.
For example, February 12th 2014: 2014-02-12, at 8:05 AM: 2014-02-12 08:05, at 4 PM: 2014-02-12 16:00.
Example
A workflow is configured so that the Start Progress transition has the Value Field condition set to MultiSelect = 10021 (option ID). A user viewing an issue in that workflow will not see the Start Progress transition unless the MultiSelect includes the option with ID 10021.
Supported field types
JSU supports many different field types such as system fields and custom fields. However, not all field types are supported, and not in all combinations. We try to support the most important field types and are continuously adding and improving how different field types are supported. Some custom fields of other third-party apps might never be supported. You should always test anything you do with issue fields with JSU. You can try it with a free 30-day evaluation license.
