Hide transition from user but allow automation to execute it.

Kaviraj_0cehu5

How to hide a workflow transition from user but also allow automation to run it.

Ex: Done --> Resolved

User should endup with Done status, after that automation should check the condition and then change to Resolved. User should not allow to see Resolved status.

I have tried Workflow Condition & Validation to achieve it, but no luck.

Any suggestion.

Thanks,

@Jeffrey Bistrong Thank you for that solution. One improvement: you can select `atlassian-addons-project-access` under "users in project role". That targets automation for Jira directly instead of needing to use a permisson.

What exactly do you mean by "no luck" ? :-) what exactly did you try a and what exactly was the result?

What automation were you doing? Did you try Triggers? I guess they should do exactly what you need, as thay ignore conditions, as can be seen on screen
(Edit workflow > edit transition > Triggers)

To hide Transition, use the Conditions tab on the same screen

Hi,
I'm trying to do a similar thing.
I want to hide a transition for an issue if it has a sub task (the transitions are automated through a script).
I tried the following (added it as condition to a workflow transition)

Boolean passesCondition = true;
if (!issue.isSubTask() && !issue.getSubTaskObjects().isEmpty()) {
passesCondition = false;
}

passesCondition

It blocks the transition from the user, however it also blocks my scripts (as the condition is false, my post function script doesn't execute).
Is there a way to only hide the transition UI elements for the user?

Link to my question.

I think I found a solution for this.

I am using the "Permission" condition on the workflow action. I put the automation for jira user in the "sprint-admin" permission which is the least used permission (only a few people have this permission)
