Workflows
transition-issue
Move a Jira issue through its workflow using a runtime-discovered transition.
Reads the current status of an issue, discovers the transitions available from that status, applies the requested transition with optional resolution fields, and verifies the resulting status.
1
readIssue
Read the issue and capture its current status so the transition can be confirmed as an actual change rather than a no-op.
2
listTransitions
List the transitions the caller can perform on this issue from its current status, expanding transition fields so required screen fields are visible.
3
performTransition
Perform the requested transition, optionally setting a resolution as part of the move. This operation returns 204 with no body on success.
4
verifyStatus
Re-read the issue to confirm the workflow status changed and to capture the resolution recorded by the transition.
