We're using our own hosted Bamboo to deploy our code to environments and we're using cloud hosted Jira. I'm trying to get it so that when Bamboo deploys to our production environment it transitions the Jira issues to "Released". It seems like our Bamboo and Jira are both already nicely connected together: - Our Bamboo can correctly see which issues a release relates to - Our Jira can correctly see the deployments an issue has been deployed to (see where it says "Deployed to ..."). So, what I did was edit our workflow to add an extra step called Released: I then edit the transition for that step and added triggers like this: 1. Add trigger 2. Choose "Deployment successful" 3. The form appears and has correctly found my Bamboo server and release projects. I repeat this to add 3 triggers (we have 3 different Deployment projects for 3 different components of our system). But nothing happens... The Deployment suceeds and in Bamboo I can see it has has listed the right Jira issue under "Issues" But the issue never gets transitioned to "Released" in Jira. There is nothing of note in the Bamboo error logs. Any ideas?

Well, it seems Bamboo deployment triggers have been deprecated. https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-16754

@Daniel Santos @John What version of JIRA supports the "deployment successful" trigger? Is it available on the server version of JIRA? That trigger would be super helpful, but it doesn't show up in the triggers list for the transitions.

nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Transition a Jira workflow when Bamboo deploys to environment

Hi @John

I was able to follow your description and reproduce this scenario. Thank you for sharing a detailed description of the issue. It is indeed a bug.

Our issue tracker already has a bug report for this problem as you can see below:

[JSWCLOUD-16754] Bamboo Deployment Workflow Triggers Do Not Function

I was thinking of options to work around this issue by using Jira REST API (as shared in this post Solved: JIRA- How to change issue status via rest?) but I'm afraid that it will be challenging to decide when to trigger and what issues should be triggered in Jira automatically from a build.

I think that I would keep the manual deployment until this problem is fixed.

Thanks very much - good to know. I will keep an eye on the bug report.

Alternatively, implementing https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-42177 would be part of the way there as we could then at least query/report on issues which have been deployed.

John_0vmvkt

Oh wait, that issue has been resolved...

I was under the impression it was not possible to query the `development` column in JQL? Maybe I'm wrong?

Basically we can *see* in Jira issue navigator where an issue has been deployed, I just can't figure out how to query on it.

Hi @John

I'm sorry for the delay. The bug you saw resolved is for Jira server. Jira cloud still has the same issue, unfortunately. This the bug reporting it for Jira cloud is [JRACLOUD-42177] Ability to view Bamboo builds and deployments in JIRA issue navigator. So, in this case, the feature is not available.
