I cannot find Check if It contains in my team managed workflow rules

[Donia]

I am trying to create a rule in my workflow on a team managed project, I am using the Restrict to when a field is a specific value, I have seen in the docs that I should be able to find contains in the "Check if it" dropdown but I couldn't
What am I doing wrong and what is the workaround for it?

Hi @Donia , welcome to the Community.

Where in the documentation did you see this? Can you share a link? As you have found that option is not available and I have not previously seen this. Possibly something that is coming but I am unaware.

Thanks for sharing. I guess the important bit is "depending on the type of field". Oddly, it appears that Contains isn't supported for text based fields. If not for text fields then what type is it supported for I wonder? It would be interesting to hear from Atlassian on this so you might open a support request. Might be a bug?

Hi Jack, Thank you

@Donia , do you have further questions beyond what I last posted? Note, I responded within my thread and recommend using Reply rather than Answer button when replying to someone so it maintains the thread.

@Jack Brickey , thank you for the help and the quick learning session, I'm new here so I am still not aware of all the right ways.

I did not see your reply on the other thread earlier, but I did open a ticket with Atlassian and they created a bug: [JRACLOUD-93422] Issue with Restrict to when a field is a specific value team managed workflow rule - Create and track feature requests for Atlassian products.
