How to make transition should not be available for certain period of time

[Kavya Janiwarad]

Hi,

I have a technical type of question. I have one transition called "Update the Project", and I want to freeze/make not available, for a certain period of time on the issue view, after a certain period (Exp: from 23/12/2021 to 29/12/2021) It should be available on the issue. how to achieve this?

Please help me with this.

Note: Solution should work on Jira Datacenter

You will need to find or write some code to do this.  I'd recommend a look at the scripting apps for Jira as some of them would make it very easy to write a simple "condition" for your workflows, one that says "return false if <now> is outside the time you want to allow the transition, else return true"

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- 

Thanks for your reply, I got your point, I have ScriptRunner for the Jira.

I can use it.

Can you please give me the condition?, so that I can use it in the workflow Custom script condition.

I am not a coder; it would probably take me longer to do this for you than it would be for you to work it out.

Have a look in https://library.adaptavist.com for something for working with date/time fields, the pseudo-code for the condition that I gave above really is quite simple.
