JMWE validator "Issue is in Active Sprint" doesn't work

[Barys Harbacheuski]

I try to set a validator on transition: allow transition "Start Progress" only if the issue is in Active Sprint using JMWE plugin. I use Groovy script "issue.get("Sprint")*.active". When I test this script, it returns true on the issue in Active Sprint and false for issues in Closed and Future Sprint. But after publishing workflow, the validator doesn't work: issues in Closed and Future Sprints are allowed to make transition.

issue.get("Sprint") actually returns a collection of Sprints: the active Sprint, plus all the closed Sprints the issue potentially belonged to before. To get the active sprint, use:

issue.get("Sprint")?.find{it.active}

To create a condition or validator from that, and to be safe, use:

 !!issue.get("Sprint")?.find{it.active}

Hi @Barys Harbacheuski  did you figure this out?

I;m looking for same condition on the post function.

Hi @Ash

Solution below works well, if it's still relevant for you.
