Hi,
For an integration I'm building using some automation rules with incoming webhooks and outgoing web requests I'm looking for a way to generate a GUID or some other kind of transaction id which I can then send with my outgoing webrequest as an Identifier.
I couldn't find any existing function or smartvalue so I'm wondering if someone has a solution to either generate one through a couple of math functions or if I'm missing something?
Hey @Dirk Ronsmans,
A couple of ideas from the top of my head:
Hope this helps!

That was one of the things I was considering to use a now function with a conversion to milliseconds maybe even.
Something else that came in to my mind was to try and use the auditid of the automation itself but doesn't seem like that accessible either.

Hey @Dirk Ronsmans
Could you expand on the design of this a little? Some prompting questions and I'll see what I can make of it once answered:

Not sure I can add much more value to this than what the others have said - making use of a UUID generator via API could be good, or leveraging a FOR smart values loop to generate the GUID (numeric only) using the random function if you want to stay inside Jira:
Haven't tested but it could work?
You could then store this as labels (so each one is individually referenceable), or just as a comment on the issue? or append it to a text field with ; or , as a separator?
