JMWE - Check Current Time before allowing Creation

[Julian Governale]

We would like to use the build-your-own validator to check if the current time is before 16:00 UTC and the printer selection is Day Print. 

If its 16:00 or later, then we block the issue creation since Day prints are not possible after 16:00 UTC. 

What is the syntax to check if the current time is after 16:00 in JMWE? We have tried the following with no luck

Validator

getUTCHours() < new Date(["16:00:00"])

Conditional Validation

!! issue.customfield_11947 && issue.customfield_11947.value == "Day Print"

Hi @Julian Governale 

If that's a Jira expression, then you can use following:

new Date().getUTCHours() > 16

Cheers

Thank you, this is what i was looking for, but just less than "<"

Hi @Julian Governale ,

See if this condition validation works for you:

!!issue.customfield_11947 && issue.customfield_11947.value == "Day Print" && new Date().getUTCHours() < 16

OR ELSE:

(issue.fields.customfield_11947 and issue.fields.customfield_11947.value == "Day Print") 
and (issue.fields.created | date("HH", "UTC") | int >= 16)
 

 Best regards.

Thank you for the response, it was just 16 that I was looking for so marking your as accepted as this does work
