How to get transition name using script listener?

[Teja]

Hi Team,

I would like to know how we get the workflow transition name,

I am trying to update the custom field when workflow transition action is performed.

def eventTypeManager = ComponentAccessor.getEventTypeManager()

def eventTypeName = eventTypeManager.getEventType(event.eventTypeId).getName()

log.info('Event Type Name:' + eventTypeName)

if(eventTypeName == 'Generic Event' && transitionName == 'Refresh')

{

//Update custom field value

}

else{

exit

}

Thanks

hello @Teja ,

You could use the transition id. If the name of the transition change, the Id won't.

You can easily find the Id of you transition by going in workflow edition mode:

Thanks for your reply!

I am having a hard time getting the code for the transition ID, any idea?

@Teja what do you mean by "having a hard time " ?

Hi @robert Mugabuhamye 

I tried the below code, it works for all the transitions, I want this to run on a particular actionId is 591

def eventTypeManager = ComponentAccessor.getEventTypeManager()
def eventTypeName = eventTypeManager.getEventType(event.eventTypeId).getName()
log.info('Event Type Name:' + eventTypeName)

def actionId = 591
def issueService = ComponentAccessor.issueService
def user = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext.loggedInUser
def issueInputParameters = issueService.newIssueInputParameters()
def validationResult = issueService.validateTransition(user, issue.id, actionId, issueInputParameters)

if(eventTypeName == 'Generic Event' && validationResult)

{

//update

}

@Teja ,

The solution in that case would be :

1. use a scripted post function 
   1. with this solution, no need to used the transition Id
2. or get the transientVars to compare to your ID

Yep I have been trying the solution of getting transientVars, but could not able to resolve No such property: transientVars for class

def eventTypeManager = ComponentAccessor.getEventTypeManager()
def eventTypeName = eventTypeManager.getEventType(event.eventTypeId).getName()
log.info('Event Type Name:' + eventTypeName)

int actionId = 591
def workflow = ComponentAccessor.getWorkflowManager().getWorkflow(issue)
def wfd = workflow.getDescriptor()
def actionName = wfd.getAction(transientVars["actionId"] as int).getName()

if(eventTypeName == 'Generic Event' && actionName == "Refresh")

{
//update
}  

 Error

groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: transientVars for class: Script63
