Release notes 2.43.0

Apr 27, 2023 

Our Product team is happy to announce the release of JSU 2.43.0, now available on the Marketplace. This version is compatible with Jira Server and Data Center 7.3.0 - 9.10.0.

Extended macro support for referencing issue fields

You can now reference any issue field data to be copied from an origin issue to a target issue using the field name. This applies to all system fields and custom fields. For example, to reference a Budget custom field you can enter %%issue.Budget%%. Previously, only the Current Date/Time, Current User, and Previous User could be copied from the origin issue using the field name.

Usage

Issue field macros start and end with %% and are composed of the prefix issue and the field name, for example, %%issue.Reporter%%.

• Case-sensitive: Write the macro using the field name as it appears in Jira. This applies to system fields and any custom fields.

• Spaces: Field names that contain more than one word must be expressed with the required spaces.

• Copy multiple field values: You can add multiple field references in a field value, for example in an issue Description or Comment field.

Examples

See Field Values for more information on referencing fields in your post function configurations.
