How to check the value of a field, whether it has changed or not with JMWE

RIZKY JTUASIKAL

how can I make the Transition Issue feature work only when the value in a field remains the same as the previous one?

Example:

previously there was a field, named Need Risk, with a value of YES.

(Need Risk = YES)

 

 

 

Then what I want, there are the following condition:

if the value of the Need Risk field remains the same as the previous one (YES), 

and when I submit the status of the Draft PRF, the transition will go to the following transition:

 

Automate: Risk Criteria  (automatically.)

 

then the status can go directly to Under Review PRF, using the following Post Function:

 

 

and if the value in the Need Risk field changes from what was previously there (for example, the value becomes NO), then the next status will enter the Risk Pre-Assessment status.

 

 

 

but I don't know what the correct query is, for the Conditional Execution part.

 

Please help..

Hi @RIZKY JTUASIKAL,

You can use the below Nunjucks script that returns true when the value of the field is "Yes"

{{ issue.fields.customfield_11000.value == "Yes" }} 

Replace 11000 with the ID of "Need Risk" 

If the "Need Risk" field is on the transition screen and you want to check in the post-function if the value of this field has changed on the transition screen, then you can add the below Nunjucks script in the Conditional Execution of JMWE Transition issue(s) post-function, that returns true if the value of the field was changed on the transition screen: 

{{ context.changelog.fields["customfield_11000"] }}

Replace 11000 with the ID of "Need Risk" field. If you want to use the above script, then the JMWE Transition issue(s) post-function must be placed after the “Update change history for an issue and store the issue in the database” built-in post-function.

I hope this helps!
