Workflow condition or validation to check if the issue has a link to a Confluence page

Leandro Cantero April 13, 2023

I need to add an condition or validation to a workflow transition to require the issue to have a link to a Confluence page. 

I have "Jira Workflow Toolbox Cloud" installed.

Hi @Leandro Cantero ,

I don't work for Decadis, but I am fairly certain Jira Workflow Toolbox uses the same Jira Expressions for conditions and validators as virtually every other workflow app for cloud does.

Going through the Jira Expressions type reference I did not find any reference to linked Confluence pages; there's only issue links. I also poked around a bit on a test instance of ours, but could not find anything. 

As best as I can tell, this is simply not possible today. I'll happily be proven wrong here and for any future readers: Re-check the documentation linked above, Jira Expressions have already improved quite a bit over time.

Best regards,
 Oliver

@Leandro Cantero I found one other request like this in community but they ended up using scriptrunner to solve it https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Workflow-condition-to-check-if-the-issue-has-a-link-to-a/qaq-p/584967 

Since there were not any examples I pulled up the documentation for that app.  https://apps.decadis.net/display/JWTCLOUD/Block+a+transition+based+on+issue+links   You will most likely have to do a little trial and error to get it to work but it looks like they support it.  

If you have additional questions you can always submit a support issue to the app developer.  https://support.decadis.net/

@Leandro Cantero Did you look at the documentation provided for Jira Workflow Toolbox Cloud it was in the link initially referenced, I also suggested that you look at submitting a support issue to decadis.
