Not sure what you meant by "limitations", but here is the related documentation page: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/automation-service-limits/

Even in case of premium, certain factors are limited (rightly so!), although with a higher quota than the regular tier.

Hi @Saikrishna Dechineni,

conditions, validators and post functions are elements of workflows and have nothing to do with automations. Maybe that is what your question is about - these are essentially different things.

You cannot use automation to add conditions or validators to a workflow. You can - on the other hand - automate actions in response to a status change from a workflow. In that scenario, automation and post functions can be mutually exchangeable. The main thing to note here is that you have a limit on the number of automation executions per month, while there are no limitations on the number of post functions you can execute. Again - these are different things. For Jira Cloud Premium, the automation rule limit is 1,000 rule executions per user in your plan (so 500,000 executions if you have 500 users).

On a final note: Atlassian is currently preparing a switch to a new workflow editor, where conditions, validators and post functions are being replaced with rules. This does not impact the difference between built-in workflow components and automation, but it is an upcoming change worth noting.

Hope this helps!

Hi @Saikrishna Dechineni , I recommend relying on the latest Atlassian documentation for answers like this. Here is an article that should provide an answer - how-is-my-usage-calculated . The article presents the limits per tier as well as how usage is calculated.
