Using JQL in the Jira + Smartsheet Connector

tschmied52721

The help article located here - https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2476121-jira-workflows#fieldmapping

States that you can use JQL to define filters for the workflow. Quoted here...

"You can use one of two methods for defining criteria in Jira filters in your workflow:

1. Jira Query Language (JQL)—Although JQL requires understanding of computer programming, you can apply more advanced filtering logic—for example, using both AND and OR operators with multiple criteria."

However, I can't see any way, or place, to enter the jql when building the workflow using the connector.  Am I missing something or is the documentation wrong?

Any help is appreciated!

Hello, 

I have found you can do it while setting up your workflow under the "Jira Filters" part. When you click the "add filter" button, you can see a free form field at the bottom that says "Custom JQL..." 

When you enter some JQL there, a "Add" buttom will appear. Click "Add" after typing some JQL and it will open a dialog to see the whole query. 

Attached is a screenshot that hopefully helps.
