There is a fundamental differences difference between Jira Server/Data Center and Jira Cloud: In Jira Cloudpost functions of apps are executed asynchronousasynchronously as a 'background job'. This means a post function will be executed after the transition has been completed on Jira Cloud.

...


Info

Note the following behaviors of the asynchronous execution:

  • If you are using multiple post functions, there is no guaranteed order in which

...

  • they are performed. They might be executed in a different order

...

  • from the one you

...

  • set

...

  • up in Jira's workflow configuration.

...

  • Therefore, you cannot rely on any result of a

...

  • previous

...

  • post function.

...

  • Also, the order in which the post functions are executed might be different every time the transition is performed.

...

  • If a post function

...

  • encounters a problem (due to misconfiguration or the current data of a Jira issue), the transition (and all other post functions) will be performed

...

  • regardless of the problem.

  • The result of a post function might not be visible immediately in the browser.

  • There are no error messages displayed to the user.
