In JIRA flag an Issue on Worklow change maybe with Checkbox

[Thomas Hergenröder]

I want to set a flag on an issue in JIRA on workflow transition.
It should also be possible to search for this flag.

I tried to use multiple checkboxes with only one checkbox, which gave me someting looking good.

But when I wanted to set the checkbox in a post function, I was not able to set it. I tried to use the JIRA Misc Workflow Extensions and the JIRA Workflow Toolbox plugins.

However I cannot find a solution.
Can anyone recomend a solution for me?

The jira suite utilities has a post function that will allow you to "update issue custom field" and you can set a field value from there.

The jira suite utilities from the post by Jo-Anne MacLeod did work.

In my case I had to set the multipe checkbox field with the string that my checkbox was named with.

The same plugin also allowed me to uncheck the checkbox

Try this one: https://plugins.atlassian.com/plugins/com.keplerrominfo.jira.plugins.jjupin (commercial)

On your workflow postfunction routine, it's just as simple as saying:

customfield_10001="myvalue";
