Can you please help me to add a transition in the existing workflow in jira ?

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to add a transition to a workflow:

  1. Log in to Jira as an Administrator.

  2. Go to Jira Settings (or Administration).

    • This is typically represented by a gear icon in the top right corner.


  1. Select Issues from the left sidebar.

  2. Under WORKFLOWS in the left sidebar, click on "Workflows."

  3. Find the workflow you want to edit and click on it.

    • You might see two options: View and Edit. Choose "Edit."


  1. You will now be in the Workflow Designer.

    • In the Workflow Designer, you'll see various statuses (like "To Do", "In Progress", "Done") represented as boxes, and the transitions between them represented as arrows.


  1. To add a transition:

    • Select the status from which you want the transition to start.

    • Click on the "Add transition" link (or button) that appears.

    • Choose the destination status for this transition. This will be where the issue moves to when the transition is executed.

    • Give your transition a name. This is what users will see when they want to perform this transition.


  1. You can also set conditions, validators, and post functions for the transition.

    • Conditions determine who can see and execute the transition. For example, you might set a condition that only assignees can move an issue to "In Review."

    • Validators ensure that certain criteria are met before the transition can be executed. For example, you might require that a certain field is filled out.

    • Post functions are actions that Jira will take after the transition is executed. For example, you could set a post function to assign the issue to a particular user after it's moved to a certain status.


  1. Once you've added and configured your transition, save your changes.

  2. Publish the Workflow.

    • Note: Publishing the workflow might affect the issues that are currently using it. Make sure you understand the changes and their implications before publishing.


  1. Apply the workflow to the appropriate project(s) and issue type(s).
