Trying to create a confluence page from a jira workflow at issue creation time

Question

I'm trying to use jmwe to create a confluence page during issue creartion time and I'm not having any luck. I've found a few groovy snippets but none actually crate a page. no errors in the log, but no confleunce page. I was able to create one using command line curl, but i can't seem to do it within workflow. i've just used the jmwe scripting so far for simple things, and I'm not even sure if I'm using it correctly. Is this even possible before I burn any more time on it?

Thanks,

Jay

Uggh, I didn't even think of cloud vs server as I was looking for solutions. I guess I'll have to have users manually create confluence page and link it to jira issue. Thanks for setting me straight on this.

Hi Jay,

you put the script in the Conditional Execution template of a  "Copy field value to parent" post-function on Jira Cloud! Groovy scripting is only supported on Jira Server. You must have been looking at the documentation for JMWE for Jira Server.

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to achieve what you are trying to do with JMWE for Jira Cloud.

Hi David,

I did run it through the verification tool and it checked out OK, even before above syntax change. I even introduced a real syntax issue and still gave me the green checkbox saying it tested OK, almost like it's treating it like a giant comment/no-op. I look in JMWE logs and it seems OK, no errors. Right now I'm putting this in a conditional validation section of a variable assignment Here part of the log after running workflow that executes conditional.
