  5. Overview of Scripted Workflow Post-Functions in Script Master

    Scripted post-functions in Script Master for Jira allow the execution of custom actions during issue transitions, such as sending external requests, modifying data, or triggering background calculations. These functions implement the Forge Jira workflow post-function module.

    Constraint: The script size for a workflow post-function must not exceed 100 kB, or it will not be saved.

  6. Overview of Script Master

    Script Master is a tool built on the Atlassian Forge framework that enables Atlassian Administrators and Consultants to build Forge-compatible scripts, UI extensions, and integrations directly within Jira Cloud and Confluence Cloud. It eliminates the need for complex build processes or external infrastructure. Key characteristics include:

    • 100% Forge-based: All scripts and customizations are hosted within the Atlassian platform.
    • Forge Compatibility: Scripts can be transitioned into standalone Forge apps if they outgrow the tool.
    • API Access: Provides real-time access to both Forge FaaS (Backend API) and Forge Custom UI (Frontend API).

  7. Overview of Smart Variables for Confluence

    The Smart Variables macro allows users to insert dynamic content into Confluence pages by using specific variable placeholders. These variables pull live data about Confluence spaces and pages, transforming static pages into interactive hubs. Key capabilities include displaying live space/page information, building dynamic page catalogs, and managing content workflows.

  8. Introduction to Mermaid diagram syntax

    Mermaid is a lightweight, text-based language used to create diagrams and charts.

  10. Extend Jira workflows using Script Master extensions

    Script Master provides scripted extensions for Jira workflows to automate transitions and enforce business logic. It supports three primary extension types:

    1. Post-Functions: Scripts executed during issue transitions to perform tasks like updating issues, sending requests, or modifying data.
    2. Validators: Scripts that ensure a transition meets specific conditions based on issue data or user actions before the transition can proceed.
    3. Conditions: Scripts that control whether a transition is visible or available to a user based on criteria such as issue status or user permissions.

    Note: This module is available for Jira only. The product has migrated to Apportunity; updated documentation is available at https://docs.apportunity.xyz.

  11. Track field modification times with First/Last Field Change Time

    The First/Last Field Change Time field is a read-only metric in Jira that automatically records the date and time of the first or last change made to one or more specified fields. The field updates automatically whenever an issue is opened or modified. Users can choose between two tracking modes:

    • Latest Change Date: Displays the date of the most recent change to the selected field(s).
    • Earliest Change Date: Displays the date of the first recorded change to the selected field(s).
