Value Field Condition - Current Status, Status Category

Matus K

Hello to all,

I recently got rid of JMWE and Scriptrunner on one of my client's instances and I am trying to facilitate most of the advanced configuration and automation with out of the box features.

In regards to a specific case (conditional handling of transitions based on the current status or current status category), I have found the only option to achieve this is by using Value Field Condition.

Unfortunatelly after trying all the possible combinations of strings and Option IDs for statuses and categories using '=' operator. I can't seem to get this thing working. Can someone help me to find the right configuration for this?

Examples:
- Status Category | = | id=2 | Option ID
- Status Category | = | 2 | Option ID
- Status Category | = | new | String
- Status Category | = | "new" | String
- Status Category | = | to_do | String
- Status Category | = | "to_do" | String

....

Thx,

Matt

Hi @Matus K,

I think the following should work:

Hmm; after testing it I must say I am a bit puzzled as well. I did not succeed in making this work with status category = To Do. I am wondering if that may be a bug.

Anyway, the following workaround did work successfully in a test environment:

Yes, but unfortunately this would still enable the transition from statuses in category To Do to category In progress. With the original condition

Status Category will have to be equal to To Do.

these transitions would not be visible which is not desired in my use case.

Oh sorry,

My mistake.. in my case this workaround is not working whatsoever.

EDITED because after testing i figured out that strings with space need to be avoided.

Hi @Matus K

I know that might be late, but I was working in a scenario similar to yours.

My problem was that I was not able to make a condition with Status field, by using != and then as string.

My case is I dont want the issue to back to Complete if in "In review", "Resolved", Canceled Status.

Also found that the "In progress" status as string does not match because of the space. Tried with " and ' no results.
So I changed some to option ID and got the status ID from Admin

THis is my screen

Sounds to be easier when doing directly by status category, but using = status was the only way to work for me.

I hope this helps.

Hi Matus,

We had a similar need today, and unfortunately Status Category was not working in workflow conditions. (which is a bug)

I suggest you put all the statuses you want to allow in an "Any of the following conditions" block or all the statuses you want to exclude in an "All of the following conditions" block.

In the end this is what works for our use case :
