Check if {{pullrequest.destinationbranch.url}} contains a string

[Ferran Salcedo]

I want to create an automation that moves issues depending on the destination branch in Github. Is there a way to use a regex to check if the returned url contains a specific text and then build my if cases based on that?

Something like:

if {{pullrequest.destinationbranch.url}}.contains("text"), then do something.

Using a normal hook I use:

key in ({{webhookData.pull_request.head.ref.match("([PIPD]+-\d+)")}})

I'm looking for the same but using the Pull Request trigger instead of the webhookData

Hi @Ferran Salcedo -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Yes, you can do that.

Please take a look at the match() and other text parsing functions to see what helps: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-text-fields/

Of note: I have found the regular expression parsing in automation rules may not support everything in your favorite flavor of RegEx so some experimentation may be needed.

Kind regards,
Bill
