Jira expression to find Previous Status

Question

Hello,

Can you please help me with the Jira expressions condition to Evaluate whether the previous status was "Open"

(issue.changelogs.filter(c => c.items.filter(i => {i.field.includes("status") } ).length > 0).length > 0)

So far I am able to check whether the status was changed at any time in issue history.

Now I wish to check the latest changelog alone and find if the fromString is "Open"

Sample payload FYR:

"items": [
        {
          "field": "status",
          "fieldtype": "jira",
          "fieldId": "status",
          "from": "1",
          "fromString": "Open",
          "to": "3",
          "toString": "In Progress"
        }
      ]

Thanks,

Majo

hello,

I was able to crack this:

issue.changelogs[0].items.filter(i => {i.field.includes("status") }).length > 0 ? issue.changelogs[0].items.filter(i => {i.field.includes("status") })[0].fromString.includes("Open") : false

I am trying this is a Script Listener module from Script Runner. There I am trying to add a condition via expressions..

Thanks,

Hi @Majo Francis _MicroGenesis Techsoft_ ,

question, why not use the "Previous status" condition in this case?
