How do you reference Fix versions - Next unreleased version in custom JSON?

Lynne Robinson

I want to set my rule to add the Next unreleased version instead of setting it to the Next unreleased version but I dont know what the field name is called. This is what I'm envisioning:

{

"update": {

"fixVersions": [

{

"add": {

"name": fixversions.nextUnreleasedVersion

}

}

]

}

}

Is this possible? I've been looking for a way to see the corresponding json to my current rule action but I haven't found it.

Thanks for your help,

Lynne

Hi @Lynne Robinson 

If I understand your use case, you want to add the Next Unreleased Version to fixVersion in addition to any current values in fixVersion.  Is that correct?  If so...

Short version: you cannot do that without a work-around

Longer version:

JQL knows about Next Unreleased Version for queries, and rules know about that value for field edits, but the issue fields know nothing about other versions/releases: only their current values.

One work-around would be:

• save the current value of fixVersion in a created variable
• use edit to set the value of fixVersion to the Next unreleased version
• use the re-fetch action to reload the trigger issue
• and now edit the issue again, adding the saved values from the created variable using the JSON edit format

Kind regard,
Bill
