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 - 9.7.0.
Extended macro support for referencing fields
You can now reference any issue field 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%% to reference the field value to be copied. Previously, only the Current Date/Time, Current User, and Previous User could be copied from the origin issue.
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
Issue Field Name | Reference Macro |
|---|---|
Assignee (Jira system field) | %%issue.Assignee%% |
group (custom field) | %%issue.group%% |
BUDGET (custom field) | %%issue.BUDGET%% |
Estimated cost (custom field) | %%issue.Estimated cost%% |
