Add User Input to an Operation

To add user input to an newly created operation, click Add User Input next to the operation on the "Manage Operations" page and enter the appropriate information in the dialog.

The following types of user input are available:

  • Text (single line)

  • Text (multi-line)

  • Checkbox (boolean)

  • Number (integer)

  • Number (floating point)

  • Select (single and multiple choice)

  • Confluence page

  • Jira issue (single and multiple choice)
  • Jira field

To prefill the user input for manual operations you can enter a default value. This value is also used if the operation is triggered by a post function or an event.
For multi select user inputs you can separate multiple default values with a comma. For Confluence page user input enter the page URL. For Jira issue user input enter the issue key(s). For Jira field user input enter the field ID, e.g. summary or customfield_10010.

You have to enter a variable name for your user input. This is used to access the value of the user input in places where variables are replace, like templates. The variable name must start with a lowercase letter, may only contain letters and numbers and must not be longer than 32 characters.

When adding a new step, e.g. with the Create new page action, you can automatically create new user input, e.g. for the parent page.
