Jira notifications for specific transitions

Question

Hi,

I have a problem with the email notification for a specific transitions that i want to stop the notification to not send via email to my customers. In fact that specific transition is name as "IN PROGRESS'' i want this transition to send to my customers only one time. I am using this transition in my workflow three times with different status. Work flow attached in the screen shot to understand more. I have tried a lot of things to manages it done. But could not find the proper solution. P.S i can not edit my workflow as it has been provided by my client. Please help me ASAP.

I am writing more steps of the image i am attaching.

Image 1:- The ticket is open and it is IN PROGRESS. OK now in this phase i want the notification via email to send to my customers that your ticket is in progress.

Image 2:- Every thing is OK at this moment no problem for the notification. The status is in PENDING CUSTOMER and is in PROGRESS. Image attached.

Image 3:- Now when i want to click the IN PROGRESS button to change the status to go to other status --- Issue resolved. This time i do not want my customer to receive the notification for the IN PROGRESS status. Image attached.

I hope i have mention everything in detail. Looking forward for the answer ASAP. Attaching my workflow also.

Hi, @Peter Bengov

I tried to resolve the issue myself and would love to share the resolution.

Made a custom notification with the JQL query ( Status = OPEN AND statusCategory = "In Progress") the notification is only send now when the ticket is OPEN and the status category is IN PROGRESS.

Have a great day.

Hi,

Thank you for the answers @Peter Bengov

Well i have tried the FIRE EVENT POST FUNCTION. I followed this document. Still no success. It does not work at all.

The answer for you last paragraph, well In progress is a transition as i said i only want to notify this transition once when the ticket is open----> in progress.

Pending Editor, Pending IT team is already in my workflow with the step name and the linked status. I have managed to close the notification for these status in the custom notification by disabling the change status event.

If you can give me the step to resolve my problem what i have already said. Would appreciate. Thank you have a great day.
