Hi @Christopher Barron,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

Validators are used in the workflow to validate if certain conditions have been fulfilled before transitioning the issue, for example make fields required, check if a field has been changed etc. You can find the default validators here. The default validators do not have a script option, so you would need an app that extends the validators to do that, like scriptrunner.

Thx for the responds. I saw in the link that you provided that you can also use validators for permissions.  How would that work?  I have users should or shouldn't have certain permissions.

The permission validator is based on the permission scheme, so it validates that the user has a specific permission, like Edit issues. You can learn more about each permission here. Note that these permissions only applies to company-managed projects.
