Webhook sent does not include system Comments field even though it fires on trigger.

I opened a support ticket on this but I'm under the gun so wanted to reach out to the community as well.

 

I have an automation rule which fires on comments and the trigger works and it sends the webhook. I send standard POST issue body json data. It includes all the fields except the system Comment field. It actually sends a custom field called "All Comments" (scriptrunner field) which isnt even configured for this projects screens.

"customfield_11107": "Nadim Nabi : Mon Dec 05 15:51:02 EST 2022 : Here is a comment<br>Allen Culpepper : Mon Dec 05 16:11:56 EST 2022 : Comment from Allen<br>Allen Culpepper : Tue Dec 06 10:34:56 EST 2022 : Test comment for new webhook rule",

Version 8.1.0

 

Here is what we expected (from system jira webhook)

Hi @Allen Culpepper 

I am curious: what did you hear back from the Atlassian Support team on this one?  Thanks!

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi Bill,

It is not supported, they added a feature request to include comments in the issue data. For now I do a workaround and add the last comment into a field which gets sent automatically in json format.
