About open window "function" to a transition of a workflow

Hwi Jun Kim April 27, 2015
Hi,

 

I have a question about setting of a transition of a workflow of Jira.

 

I made a new workflow of Jira. I want to add the following "function" to
a transition of each state (For instance, "Open" to "In Progress" ).
However, I cannot find how to do it. Could you let me know how?

 

"Function" I want:
- For instance, when a state is changed from "Open" to "In Progress" by
clicking a button, it is required to open a form window which includes
"Assignee" and "Comment" field automatically.

 

Could you let me know how to add the above function for a transition?

 

I tried to do it. But I cannot find how to add the above function.

 

Thanks,

Hey there Hwi,

for this case you must involve an issue screen in this transition.
Go under administration - issues - screens and create a new one for this transition - set your wanted fields in this screen.
After you created the screen you can go in the workflow section - your workflow and edit the affected transition.
There you should have an edit button on the right top - there you can set the screen for this transition.

When you want the fields on the transition to be required you have to set a validator on this transition as well.
If your standard JIRA doesn't have a suiting validator you have to install some workflow plugin - if I remind right misc workflow got the feature to check fields.


PS - don't search long for the field comment on the screen.
Comment is always on a screen even if you don't set fields on it.
