looking to display a url during post-functions of post function

Question

I have a Jira cloud workflow where if user clicks on a transition button I'd like to throw up one of our internal webpages. Is there any way to accomplish kicking off a browser with one of our urls? I saw back in 2011 someone had asked about this this without luck, so I'm hoping things have changed since then?

Thanks,

Jay

Hi Bhushan,

Thanks for the information. After reading this, I opted to use a URL field to store link, full it in during Post instructions and have user manually click on link in field.

Hi Jay

Post-functions run on the server side and are not intended for this use case. Take a look at the following discussions.
