workflow transition does not work for sub tasks

Paresh Gandhi

I'm creating 3 subtasks as post function in workflow.

All the subtasks are using same workflow. On issue create I have post function which should take sub task to next status.

This is working for only last i.e. 3rd sub task not the 1 and 2nd. That transition is available for those 2 subtasks and i have to click manually to go to next status

Post-functions are not capable of changing status safely.

Let's start there - how *exactly* are you doing this second transition?

Paresh Gandhi

It's one workflow.

On Issue Create - I have post function - If priority = Imporant and Type = Subtask - action id xxx will take to status from unvetted to waiting for triage

Start -->Create Issue transition -> Unvetted (status) --> vetted transition -> waiting for triage (status)

This post function works only on last sub task created by issue type = "Access" and on "vetted access" transition.

Start -->Create Issue transition -> Unvetted (status) --> vetted access transition -> waiting for support (status) - This works without any issue and creats 3 sub tasks mentioned in post function of vetted access transition

please let me know if you need any additional information. Thank for looking into this.

i also develope a custom listener to change status of issue type sub task however that also did not work

It throws error message:

java.lang.RuntimeException: You can not transition an issue with an invalid validation result.

even though that "vetted" transition avaiable for the issue.

That's the bit that does not usually work safely. What post-function are you using? (I suspect it's only blind luck that it's working in one case at all)

Can you clarify this.

You have a workflow function on the parent issue that creates 3 subtasks, when the parent is created?

On the subtask workflow, you have a fast-track workflow function that should move them to the next state?

But it only works for the third, even though there is no difference between the 3 subtasks?

Paresh Gandhi

no, it creates 3 subtasks on another transition

parent and subtask are using same workflow. On issue create there is post funciton which takes issue to next status

yes, the last one e.g. if i have 4 sub task it will work on only 4th one

Jamie,

as per link https://jamieechlin.atlassian.net/wiki/display/GRV/Built-In+Scripts#Built-InScripts-Createasub-task

it is not supposed to go into workflow for the except the last sub task.

Can you suggest something or modify so that each subtask should go into the workflow.
