Previously, Automation required technical expertise and the use of APIs. We have launched new feature called ‘Automation’ which enables us to skip semi-tech steps to set automation. With just a few clicks, we can save your time and reduce human errors by using Automation feature!
An automation step allows you to perform an action on a page.
There are four actions available:
Change page status - This action changes the status of a page and offers two options.
Space suggested status - the user can provide the name of the desired status. If no status with that name is found, this step will be skipped.
Custom status - are user-specific. You need to provide a name, and we'll match it with the statuses available to the user who started the approval, or create a new one for them. Alternatively, you can select a user, choose one of their statuses, or provide a new one. The custom status will be added by the selected user. If you provide a custom status that does not yet exist, you can also select its color. The default color is blue.
Add a comment on a page - Adds a text comment to a page.
Add/ remove label(s) - Adds or removes a label on a page.
Set entity property - Adds an entity property with a specified key and value. Advanced Reporting and Filtering - you can use issue properties to generate detailed reports on issues that are not covered by Jira's default fields.
To check the entity property, use the following API endpoint:
