Simple Issue Language Documentation

Simple Issue Language (SIL) is intended to simplify work for users who do not know or want to deep dive into the implementation details of Jira. SIL was written to make things as simple as possible - so a person without strong programming abilities can use it effectively. Though extremely flexible and forgiving, SIL allows users to learn and work with the basics of workflow customization, email handling, issue listeners and scheduled tasks.

As SIL became more important and it was included to all our scripted fields and apps, this is a reference space for all those apps using the language.

All Jira SIL functions are also listed here (including some of those added by the other apps). Please check the availability of each function and the related app.
