How to create Conditional transition screen?

[Kedar Kanel]

I have a global transition named "2 Resolve".  I also have screen named "Resolved Screen".

How can I create Workflow Condition such that transition screen (Resolved Screen) is visible during "2 Resolve" only if the the condition is true.

@Kedar Kanel - Here is a related article that helped me when I was attempting to show a transition screen conditionally based on a custom field value...this got me where I needed to be.

I hope it helps you!

Hi @Kedar Kanel 

To create a conditional transition screen in Jira, you'll need to configure conditions in your workflow. Conditions in Jira workflows control whether a transition should be available to a user based on specified criteria. Here are some Atlassian documents for your reference:

• Configure advanced issue workflows
• Advanced workflow configuration

I hope this will help.

Hi @Emily _ DevSamurai yes Conditions in Jira workflow control whether a transition should be available to user or not.

I want the transition to be visible all the time but only trigger the Transition Screen if certain condition is met. 

Is it possible to set/remove screen to workflow transition using script? That would also solve the problem. Then I could create Scriptrunner Behaviour and set or remove screen to the required workflow transition.

Hi Kedar,

Having the transition screen dynamically set for certain issue types in the same transition by a script is impossible, as Atlassian does not provide any Rest APIs to do this.

Hi Kristian,

How about

• setScreen(String transitionName, FieldScreen screen, JiraWorkflow workflow)

from 

• com.atlassian.jira.bc.workflow.DefaultWorkflowTransitionService

How is it used? When I tried to use it I got following error

groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: 
No signature of method: static com.atlassian.jira.bc.workflow.DefaultWorkflowTransitionService.setScreen() is 
applicable for argument types: (String, com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.screen.FieldScreenImpl...) 
values: [testTransition, [FieldScreenImpl Test Screen], com.atlassian.jira.workflow.ConfigurableJiraWorkflow@5512a465] 
Possible solutions: setScreen(java.lang.String, com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.screen.FieldScreen, com.atlassian.jira.workflow.JiraWorkflow)

Here is my code

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowManager
import com.opensymphony.workflow.loader.ActionDescriptor

import com.atlassian.jira.bc.workflow.DefaultWorkflowTransitionService

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.screen.FieldScreen
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.screen.FieldScreenManager

WorkflowManager workflowManager = ComponentAccessor.getWorkflowManager();
def workflow = workflowManager.getWorkflow(issue);
String workflowName = workflow.getName();
log.warn("Workflow name: " + workflowName);

def wfd = workflow.getDescriptor();
log.warn("Current action name: $wfd");

def allactions = workflow.getAllActions()
log.warn("All actions ID and names" + allactions.collect {it.name+ ' '+ it.id})

def actionName = wfd.getAction(31).getName(); // Replace with actual workflow transition ID
log.warn("Current action name: $actionName");

def fieldScreenId = 10100 // Replace with the actual field screen ID
FieldScreenManager fieldScreenManager = ComponentAccessor.getFieldScreenManager()
FieldScreen fieldScreen = fieldScreenManager.getFieldScreen(11600) // Replace with actual screen ID
log.warn("Field screen is $fieldScreen")
log.warn("Field screen is " + fieldScreen.getId())

def setScreen = DefaultWorkflowTransitionService.setScreen(actionName, fieldScreen ,workflow)
log.warn("success")

I also tried actionDescriptor.setView(fieldScreenId.toString()) which got executed without error but it broke the workflow. 

Below is the code for it

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.screen.FieldScreen
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.screen.FieldScreenManager
import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowManager
import com.opensymphony.workflow.loader.ActionDescriptor

WorkflowManager workflowManager = ComponentAccessor.getWorkflowManager()
def workflow = workflowManager.getWorkflow(issue)
String workflowName = workflow.getName()
log.warn("Workflow name: " + workflowName)

def wfd = workflow.getDescriptor()
log.warn("Current action name: $wfd")

def allActions = workflow.getAllActions()
log.warn("All actions ID and names" + allActions.collect { it.name + ' ' + it.id })

def actionName = wfd.getAction(31).getName() // Replace with actual workflow transition ID
log.warn("Current action name: $actionName")

def fieldScreenId = 11600 // Replace with the actual field screen ID
FieldScreenManager fieldScreenManager = ComponentAccessor.getFieldScreenManager()
FieldScreen fieldScreen = fieldScreenManager.getFieldScreen(11600) // Replace with actual screen ID
log.warn("Field screen is $fieldScreen")
log.warn("Field screen is " + fieldScreen.getId())

// Use ActionDescriptor to set the screen association
def actionDescriptor = wfd.getAction(31) as ActionDescriptor // Replace with actual workflow transition ID
actionDescriptor.setView(fieldScreenId.toString())
log.warn("Success")

Hi Kedar 

These Apis are for Jira dat center / server and will work on this but if on cloud they will not work.

I was not aware of these data center apis myself so thank you for suggesting these.
