Prevent transition of parent ticket if subtasks with a specific summary are open

Question

I would like to add a condition to a transition in my workflow. My issue should only transition if all subtasks which include "Dept Approval" in the summary are in either the 'Done' or 'Canceled' status.

I assume this will need to be done via JMWE, but I am unfamiliar with the syntax and would need help writing this condition.

Hi @Christy Kennedy

you can add a Build-your-own Validator to the transition with a Jira expression like this:

issue.subtasks.every(subtask => !subtask.summary.includes("Dept Approval") || subtask.status.name == "Done" || subtask.status.name == "Canceled")
