Cannot use "equals" conditional logic with Jira project management software v8.6.0

Công Trung

Hi all,

I'm working with Jira Project Management Software v8.6.0 and trying to build an automation rule that:

- Interactive with DoD (a checklist for needed files)

- If a field has an attachment, it will be ticked with the corresponding position in DoD

I have successfully tested this with Jira v10.3, but it did not work with Jira v8.6.0.

I think that 'equals' does not work or available in v8.6.0

    "update": {

        "DoD": [

            {

                "edit": [

                    {{#DoD}}

                        {

                           "id": {{id}},

                           "checked": {{#if(equals(name, "Task Report"))}}true{{/}} {{^if(equals(name, "Task Report"))}}{{checked}}{{/}}

                        }

                        {{^last}},{{/}}

                     {{/}}

                 ]

            }

        ]

    }

}

Hi @Công Trung

I believe equals exists in Jira 8.6 since it exists in this documentation for 8.2.

When you do a negative condition, I believe you should write not instead of ^.

{{#if(not(equals(name, "Task Report")))}}{{checked}}{{/}}

If you believe the string condition equals is not working, you could try the match Regex condition.

{{#if(name.match("Task Report"))}}true{{/}}

Kind regards,
Maxime
