Editing Workflow Always shows as a draft that can't be edited

Kayla Crowder May 8, 2014

I'm trying to edit a workflow to add a post function that assigns the reporter as the assignee after the issue is created.

I click edit on the workflow, and it AUTOMATICALLY says i'm editing a draft, which needs to be published. Then I click Add Transition, or Add Status, and it tells me I can't do anything, because it's a draft. I publish the draft, same thing. I discard the draft, same thing. Always goes immediately back to an ineditable draft status.

If someone could tell me how to fix this, WITHOUT creating a copy and replacing all my workflows again, that'd be great.

Also, where is the documentation for creating a post function?

Hi Kayla,

Had the same problem. Only worked iut when I set the workflow to inactive.

Then assigned it to a Project again.

Let me know if this worked! (Yes, I know it's almost a year old wink)

Hello Kayla,

just to be sure, you can't edit the default workflow. Btw this is the official JIRA on-Demand documentation https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AOD/Configuring+Workflow

Hope this helps,

Fabio

Hi Kayla,

did you try to discard the unpublished draft first?

Regards,

Fabio
