Transition

Transitions are an integral part of Jira's workflow management system and allow users to track and manage the progress of an issue. Each transition can have associated conditions, validators, and post-functions that control when and how the transition can be executed. These additional configurations help ensure that the issue meets certain criteria or undergoes specific actions before or after the transition. For example, a transition can move an issue from the Open status to the In Progress status, indicating that work has begun on the issue. Transitions can be triggered manually by users or automatically based on predefined rules and conditions. They provide a visual representation of the progression of an issue, allowing teams to monitor and control the workflow effectively.
