Transition Condition Script check Destination Step

[Jonathan Zuber]

Hi,

First off I am using ScriptRunner.

I am trying to write a generic, simple script (ie: return true/false) to be used by multiple transitions . 

These will be used to set up a condition for the transition (ie: the transition will be visible or invisible based on the result).

The goal is to check if the action will lead to a particular step.  

Pseudo code:

return transition.endStep == "ABC"

The issue is I cannot (after hours of reading) find a way to access the transition the condition script is being run for. I am able to get the current step descriptor as follows:

def currendef issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
MutableIssue curIssue = (issueManager.getIssueByCurrentKey(issue.getKey()))
StepDescriptor = workflow.getLinkedStep(curIssue.getStatus())

transientVars["actionId"] is not available... (https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/recipes/workflow/get-workflow-vars.html)

getDestinationStep() is not available... (https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/behaviours-api-quickref.html#_workflow_information)

Thanks for any guidance!

Jon

Where are you pointing to your generic script?

If you put it in a "custom script condition", transientVars["actionId"] should be available.

It's not available in "simple scripted condition".

Then you can get the name of the target status:

ComponentAccessor.getWorkflowManager().getWorkflow(issue).getDescriptor().getAction(transientVars['actionId'].toInteger()).unconditionalResult.status

Hi, 

I was trying it in a simple scripted condition... 

"It's not available in "simple scripted condition"." This is all I needed!

Maybe I missed it somewhere in the documentation.

Thanks!

I don't think this is listed in the documentation, but the script editor's script info (the question mark icon) is your friend when it comes to understanding what variables are available

If it's not listed, it is not available.

That' a great tip - thanks again!
