What does parent issue mean in the context of a workflow validator?

Bruce Kozuma July 28, 2018

One of the built in validators for Workflows is Parent Status Validator. The description says that it "Validates that the parent issue is in required state." Does this only apply to Issues and sub-tasks?

A simple test (duh) seems to answer the question as Yes, but is there a way to do this based on a link status, without using an add-on? I suspect the answer is no.

Hi Bruce,

you're right! You will definitely need an additional app for that. But trust me, that's where the real fun in Jira begins so you need it anyway :) Best, Max

Max,

Thanks. The problem for me is that we have a single Cloud instance, so add-ons are very costly since we need to purchase them for the entire instance.
