Jira Automation - Filtering for "Overdue" versions from REST api response

Kalyan Sattaluri

Hi,

 

I am on Jira Server Automation.

I retrieved all versions for my project using REST api and result looks like what is shared in documentation page : https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.6.1/#api/2/project-getProjectVersions

I now want to filter this down to ones which are overdue.  ("overdue": true,) because I need to send an email of all overdue versions, their name and release date for folks to take action.

Going through documentation, I think response is a list and can be accessed thru {{webhookresponses.body}} but I cant figure out how to filter this list.

 

@Bill Sheboy in this thread said: "if there is a specific one you need, such as by name filtering...Unfortunately smart value, list filtering does not work yet for Data Center/Server.  You could use the match() function with a regular expression if you extract from the correct level in the response."

So trying to understand if what I am trying is possible, if so, any guidance is greatly appreciated. I havent made any progress in the if block conditions I tried so far.

Response from API call looks like in documentation. Thanks!!

Hi @Kalyan Sattaluri - whoa, you found a rare case of Bill being wrong (albeit on a post from almost a year ago). :-}

Smart list filtering (or as Atlassian calls it Conditional Logic) definitely works on DC/Server. I have a rule that uses it on our Jira Server (yes I know) instance. I created it back in March of this year.

For the record, this was supposedly done on 30/Aug/2021, per JIRAAUTOSERVER-294 but we didn't see documentation for it until 01/Jan/2022.

Now, last June (2022), Bill referenced the original announcement of the feature by @Sam Harding from Atlassian, on 06/Oct/2021.

SO ANYWAYS, yeah, this should be possible. Let us know if you run into any issues!
