On the left side menu, go to project settings and choose the option Workflows. Then on the right-hand side, click the edit Edit button to edit your workflow. In this case, we will configure the post-function on the
Click Text view, then select the “in progress” transition. Move to the post-functions
Select the Post Functions tab, click to add post-function and then select then click Add Post Function.
Select the "Copy/Move attachments (JSU)" post-function from the menuthen click Add.
- Configure the post function:
- Choose the Parent/Sub-task relation since you want the post
- function to perform when the parent issue is transitioned and for the attachments to be copied on the sub-tasks.
- Select the "always copy attachments" option from the drop-down menu
- to have all the attachments you will add during the transition on the transition screen copied through to the sub-tasks. In this drop-down, you have the option to select a field of your parent issue to have a value, in order for the attachments to be copied to the sub-tasks. By configuring this, the attachments added on the transition screen will only be copied to the sub-tasks if that field has a value.
- Follow the same steps if you want the attachments that existed in your parent issue before the transition started to be copied through too.
- Click Add to create your post-function. Do not forget to publish
- Publish your workflow.
- Now, go test your post function:
- Go to your issue and create sub-tasks for your team members. At this stage, you will need to assign a transition screen to the "
- In Progress" transition in order to enable the rule you have configured in your post-function "copy/Move attachments added during the transition". Configuring screens is a functionality offered by Jira out of the box and here is a quick way of doing it for this case.
- Move your parent issue
- to "In Progress" and upload the creative document on the transition screen you created. Refresh and see what you have achieved with JSU! Open your sub-tasks and check your attachments. The document is there and now the whole team can start working without going back and forth to the parent issue.
