Limit a Behaviour to a Specific Screen in Jira

You can now vote for scripts to help people know if they're useful or not. Login or create an account to vote!

Overview

Behaviours define how fields behave for issues in a given project or issue context. Screens allow you to change the displayed fields when creating an issue, editing an issue, or transitioning a workflow. This script allows you to execute a specific behaviour logic inside a particular issue screen, such as a workflow transition.

Example

Good to know

I work in product support, and customers often report bugs. When transitioning bugs from one state to another, such as Open to In Progress, I want to make the Affects Version field mandatory. I can use this behaviour script to define this is a required field for specific transitions.
