How to reference different smart value inside the list iteration

Haewon Kim

Objective: To iterate the comments of the triggered issue then retrieve the body of the comment that was edited the most recently.

---

This was so far what I could get, and it's stuck because I have no idea how to reference independent smart value inside the list iteration.

 

{{#issue.comments}}
  {{ if(equals({{issue.comments.updated.last}}, updated), body) }}
{{/}}

 

Then this fails because it's not using the proper syntax, especially "{{issue.comments.updated.last}}."

 

How can I achieve the goal to allow this iteration to check every comments' last updated datetime with {{issue.comments.updated.last}} smart value to populate the body of the comment with the most recent updated time?

Hello, this is the json structure of a comment:

{

    "self": "https://currentinstance/rest/api/2/issue/974960/comment/2519688",

            "16x16": "https:currentinstance/secure/useravatar?size=xsmall&ownerId=JIRAUSER128011&avatarId=72082",

            "24x24": "https:currentinstance/secure/useravatar?size=small&ownerId=JIRAUSER128011&avatarId=72082",

            "16x16": "https:currentinstance/secure/useravatar?size=xsmall&ownerId=JIRAUSER128011&avatarId=72082",

    "created": "2023-06-30T13:01:03.209-0300",

    "updated": "2023-06-30T13:01:03.209-0300"

}

its smart value {{issue.comments.updated.last}} always returns the comment's update date there in the json structure, here are some examples:

{{issue.comments.body.last}} returns the body of the last comment
{{issue.comments.created.last}} returns the creation date of the last comment
{{issue.comments.author.displayName.last}} returns the display name of the author of the last comment
{{issue.comments.author.emailAddress.last}} returns the email address of the author of the last comment
