Project automation - how do i make a change in field result in different pathway through workflow

[carly_noreen]

I am looking at the different options available under project automation, but am having trouble finding how to set the logic - if Field Change Type is set to Emergency upon creation, I want that ticket to only be able to follow a certain pathway through the overall workflow, so basically I want to be able to provide the system with the pathway so if it transitions to A then only C and D are available next, then if c or D, then F, etc.  How would I do this?

Hi @carly_noreen

you should take a look at:

• Workflow Conditions

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/configure-advanced-issue-workflows/#Advancedworkflowconfiguration-conditions

• Workflow Validators

• Workflow Post functions

@carly_noreen you can use "Conditions" on workflow,  or you can use the "If/Else block" condition on automation.

However if you want a suggestion, i can suggest to use the "JMWE" add-on.

You can create conditions with more conditions on workflow
