Can JIRA fire an event when the fixVersion field is changed?

Evelin

I was asked if JIRA could notify a group of users if the fixVersion of an issue is changed to a certain fixVersion. As far as I know events can be fired if an issue is changed and not if a single field was changed to some value.

Also if I add 'Schedule fixVersion' as a workflow transition with a special screen and configure the Fire Event function in the workflow's post functions, I have no parameter that is related to a field value.

Do I miss something? We are on JIRA Server.

Use a filter

fixVersion changed from V9 to V10 after -1h

and set up a hourly group subscription.

If you even change single field then JIRA fire ISSUE_UPDATED event. You need not to add special workflow transitions.

Evelin

Sorry, I don't understand. fixVersion is no custom field but one of the basic fields.

Dmitrii Apanasevich

I'm sorry too. I've changed answer. It doesn't matter what kind of changed field is. ISSUE_UPDATED event will be fired.

Hey Evelin,

you can do this if you just set the field in a workflow transition and fire an specific event in this transition as well.

With fixversion this should work. fixVersion should be set if the issue is resolved - so build a screen with fixVersion and show this screen in the issue resolved/closed transition (fixVersion is mandatory here ofc)
So you have your "fix Version set"-Event in this transition to inform your special group. (notification scheme)

What Dmitrii means is to use Issue-updated event which is triggered every time a field of an issue is updated (but works with every field not exclusively fixVersion.

Evelin

Thanks - yes, I know, this would work when I like to be notified when a field changes at all. But the point is that I like to generate a notification when the fixVersion field has be changed to certain value, for instance from V9 to V10 , and I haven't found a way to configure this.

Udo Brand

I addition to what Simon said you would need to remove the field from the edit screen. So you make sure it only can be set during the transitions where the event will be fired.

or simply "fixversion changed after -1h"

Evelin

Ah! As simple as that! I used fixVersion changed to "yxz" AFTER -1h Thanks, Udo.
