Link JIRA issue to Confluence on transition

[Ovidiu Vasilescu]

I'd like on a specific transition to have a screen show up querying the user to put a link to Confluence.

Is this at all possible? All the documentation I can find goes through the ludicrously time-consuming way of More>Links>Confluence which is just not reasonable to expect a huge team to remember to do every time they finish an issue.

Cheers.

This isn't possible using out-of-box JIRA features to add "JIRA issue actions" popup on transition, but you can use a plugin (like Script Runner) to achieve this.

But that's adding a validator to check there's a weblink, no? So the transition fails (or is not visible) until you manually go and add a confluence link (through More>Links>Confluence).

No, I am not talking about Validatory, I am talking about using a post-function to add a Link. You can also use a Validator during the transition if you want to check for a link.
