8. Click Publish draft to save the changes.
   

   

9. Test the validator by attempting to transition an issue which does not meet the criteria. The transition will fail.

Troubleshooting Validators

Checklist for Jira uses issue entity properties to provide the following features:

• Block workflow transition if checklist is incomplete

• Basic JQL search

• Display checklist progress in Agile board and Search results

Therefore, the Checklist must be able to set issue entity properties. This is enabled by default. However, if a jira.permission.* workflow property has been set on a workflow step, Issue Checklist may not be able to set issue entity property.

For example, the following property will prevent Checklist from setting issue properties, and features listed above won't work correctly:

Removing the jira.permission.* workflow property and using the standard Jira permissions to control who can edit the issue will allow the Checklist functions to work.
