How can I change the issue status automatically on it's assignment. For instance when I'm assigning an issue from user A to user B it's status is being changed automatically from Open to In Progress?
Thank you
Hello,
You would need a plugin for it. There are multiple plugins available: Power Scripts, ScriptRunner, Automation For Jira etc.
If you want to use the Power Scripts add-on, then you can create a listener for the Issue Assigned event with a code like this:
autotransition("transition name", key);
Hello @Alan Leung
You would need to write a custom listener, which listens to the assignee change event and then transitions the issues to the next step in the workflow. I have done something similar using Script runner paid plugin.
But you can also update the assignee in the post-funciton of an transition as that's less complex to do and supported by most plugins out of the box.
Do you know of any free plugin to download that serves the same purpose?
Thanks
You can have a look at Groovioli or MyGroovy.
You can look into the features of these 2 really good free plugins
