20.0.0 Improvements MAINTENANCE
Major Forge migration and UI enhancements for Jira Workflow Toolbox Cloud
This release marks a significant milestone in our transition to the Atlassian Forge platform, bringing improved performance and a more modern user interface to your workflow configurations.
Improvements
-
Forge migration for core post functions – we have successfully moved several key post functions to Forge, including Update linked issue or sub-task, Update fields, Transition issue Send email, and Add or remove watchers.
-
Backend harmonization – improved data consistency between our Connect and Forge infrastructures to prepare the final steps of the forge migration.
-
Modernized expression parser – the expression parser now features a more compact design that expands dynamically as you type or test your expressions.
-
Clearer logical validator labels – we've updated the UI to use "Logical expression" instead of "Parser expression" where appropriate, along with helpful new tooltips.
Bug fixes
-
Parser field display – fixed a bug where certain fields were not rendering correctly in the parser UI.
19.0.0 New Features MAINTENANCE
Powerful new Logical validator, workflow annotations, and conditional execution.
New features
-
Logical validator – You can now use the powerful JWT parser expressions directly within validators. This allows for complex, JQL-dependent validations (e.g., checking the status of related issues) that native Jira expressions cannot handle. It includes customizable error messages and a built-in execution time monitor to ensure performance limits are respected.
-
Notes & explanations for workflow rules – We’ve added a new "Notes" section to all workflow functions. The Note field provides a short description visible directly in the Atlassian workflow editor preview, while the Explanation field allows for detailed documentation. This significantly improves transparency and maintainability in complex workflows.
-
Conditional execution for conditions and validators – Admins can now define a central pre-condition for any condition or validator. The rule will only be evaluated if this pre-condition is met, eliminating the need for redundant configurations and "copy-paste chaos."
Bug fixes
-
Fixed drag-and-drop in Execute Sequence of Actions – Resolved an issue where reordering actions within the "Execute Sequence of Actions" post function was not being saved correctly.
-
Audit log deep links – Fixed an issue where links in audit log notification emails failed to open the specific log entry.
-
-
Execute Sequence of Actions summary view – Resolved a bug where sub-functions were sometimes hidden in the summary view of an Execute Sequence of Actions rule.
-

New parser functions for more flexible rule logic
New features and improvements
This release introduces four new parser functions to enhance the flexibility and precision of rule configurations:
-
allIssuesUnder() - Enables users to retrieve all issues under a specified parent issue. Ideal for hierarchical issue structures and advanced queries.
-
parent() - Provides access to the parent issue of a given sub-task or linked issue, allowing for more context-aware expressions.
-
isInGroup() - Returns true if a specified user is part of a defined user group. Useful for group-based conditions in rules and workflows.
-
isInRole() - Checks whether a user holds a particular project role. Supports role-based logic for targeted rule execution.
