Create a value map using the cascade select configuration
Description
Substitution variables are of great help when it comes to configuring field values for issues. Want to use a field value using a value map? For instance, you want the Jira user to see one value on the screen, but internally, you need a different value to be set in a custom field. How can this be done easily? This shows how to do this using a cascade select configuration in an non-typical way.
Example of a value map
Key | Value |
---|---|
joe | |
sally |
Steps
The following steps demonstrate how to configure Create on Transition, regex inspection of the project using a built-in function:
| Step | Example |
---|---|---|

| |
2 | Add a parent entry with the key value of your map | |
3 | Create a child entry with the value part of your map | |
4 | Repeat for each key and value pair |
Use substitution values
Suppose your cascade select custom field is called: myMap
Example | Result |
---|---|
%values_myMap(joe)% | |
%values_myMap(sally)% | |
%values_myMap(%entry%)%
