Auto-Comment an Approved request with JMWE.

[Dimitris Damaskos]

I just made a nice post function and I wanted to share it to the world:

In our Company, we have some tickets that after they get approved the component leader must be notified to perform a specific task. 

I made a Post function to get the component leader and mention him in a comment. 

If the component does not have a lead it will randomly mention a specific person from a list. 

{% set comp = issue.fields.components | field("name") %}

{% for i in range(0,comp | length) %}
    {%set des = issue.fields.components | find({"name":comp[i]}) | field("description") %} 
    {% if des | length != 0%} 
       [~{{des}}] please address this task. 
    {% else %} 
       [~{{ ["*****@*****.com","*****@*****.com"] | random }}] please address this task. 
    {% endif %} 
{% endfor %}

 In our Jira Cloud instance, some users key is their email address and for other, it is the first part of their email address so we chose to get the description of a component and we made sure that we enter the key of the account of the Project lead.
