🆕 JWT now includes automation rules! 🆕

A year ago we released our app Automation Toolbox to not only enable you to automate your daily work in Jira workflows but also match your business processes with automation rules listening to Jira's various events like field, issue, project, and system events.

With the release of Jira Workflow Toolbox 2.9.0, Automation Toolbox will become an integral part of Jira Workflow Toolbox because we decided you should not need two apps for one common goal: Building the best processes to support your teams.

While the name remains the same, you can go way beyond your Jira workflows.

New features

• Automation rules are now available within JWT in order to perform Actions based on Triggers

Improvements

• A Get started page was added to serve as a central hub for accessing all JWT-related functions
• An option to suppress the default Jira email subject prefix was added to the Send an email post function

Jira 8 Compatibility

Bug fixes

Bug fixes

• Calculated fields had been removed from the index in version 2.4.9 to prevent problems related to functions that require the index while the index is unavailable.

• The isJwtTriggeredTransition() function did not respect the issue creation when triggered by Jira Workflow Toolbox itself
• Fix in Ephemeral fields to prevent a NullPointer exception caused by empty objects generated by the Expression Parser Test page

Parametric issue type selection in post function "Create issues and sub-tasks"

IMPORTANT NOTE

In version 2.3.3 issues stopped to be immediately updated after each field writing. This modification of the historical behavior of JWT has caused problems in some workflows configured with previous versions of JWT. In this new version of JWT (2.3.4) we are adding a checkbox parameter for optionally updating the issue after a field writing.

IMPROVEMENTS

• Added optional parameter "Update issue immediately after field writing" to 12 post-functions. This parameter is checked in old post-function configurations.

BUG FIXES

• Unary minus operator caused NPE when applied on numeric expressions returning null.
• Optional parameter "Don't overwrite" wasn't working in post functions Read field from issues returned by JQL query or issue list and Read fields from linked issues or sub-tasks.
• Post function Send an email didn't manage correctly attachments using Cyrillic characters in the file name.
• Functions replaceFirst() and replaceAll() caused NPE when applied on null arguments.

New Features

• 8 new functions related with date-time calculations.

Improvements

• Maximum delay for delayed transition execution now is 60 s, instead of 30 s.

Bug Fixes

• Each field update done by JWT post-functions appeared in issue history separately.

• Issue #264 - Fixed bug with on functions datePart() and timePart() when used on the days where DST transition happens.

• Changed behavior of function addMonths() so that when adding 1 month to 30th April we will obtain 30th May instead of 31st May.

• Error in the way setting rules were rendered by "Syntax Check" button mainly on post-function "Set field as a function of other fields" and also on some other features.

• Parser functions that admits a comma separated list of usernames didn't filter duplicated values. In this version we implement a filter to avoid duplications.

• When using JWT post-functions for setting fields in "Create Issue" transition in JSD, emails were not being sent to approvers.Detailed release notes
