For the past 24 hours or so, I've been battling a phenomenon with my Jira Workflows where a majority of them are being disabled with a message: "The column mapping for this workflow is invalid. Please edit the workflow to fix the issue." I had not made changes to many / most of them in a few days, so it's unclear to me as to what the problem could be.
Looking at one of the easy ones, it's really simple:
- Issue Key - Primary column
- Issue Type - Dropdown list
- Team - Dropdown list
- Parent Issue - Text/Number
- Formula: =PARENT([Issue Key]@row )
- Children Exist? - Text/Number
- Formula: =IF(COUNT(CHILDREN([Issue Key]@row )) > 0, "Yes", "No")
- Sync Status - Text/Number
- Status - Dropdown list
In my attempts to resolve this issue, I have simply enabled the workflow, as well as completely re-mapped all of the columns. Each of which has shown some temporary signs of success (Things run for a while), then I log in this morning and see that nearly all have been disabled.
I humbly ask for guidance 🤔
