Create subtask with a "Conditional execution" on summary-field
I'm trying to configure a validator between a field on the main ticket and the existence of a subtask.
I implemented a transition "Action1" with the action "Create issues and subtasks" with the following configuration:
There is a checkbox-customfield %{13508} and for every checked option I want to create a seperate subtask. The summary field (%{00000}) from the subtask should be filled with the text "[Checked Value of %{13508}] Summary of Parent Issue". This works very fine with the configuration from the screenshot1 and the result is sreenshot2.
Unfortunalty it is possible to trigger the transition "action1" for a second, third, ... time. Because of that I want to insert a "Conditional execution". If the subtasks already exists, than the transition shouldn't create a new one for this checked option in customfield %{13508}. For this I want to check, whether there is a subtask with the "checked value from %{13508}" in its summary field (%{00000}). Therefor I filled in this string:
toStringList(%{13508}) none in fieldValue(%{00000}, subtasks())
This works fine, if I create the subtask-summary only with the value from the customfield %{13508}.
My first problem is: If I execute the transition for the first time with customfield %{13508} checked "value1" and unchecked "value2", the transition creates a subtask for value1. After that I edit the customfield and both values are checked. If I execute the transition for a second time I want the action to create a second subtask for value2 and no further one for value1.
My second problem is: If I use the string "[Checked Value of %{13508}] Summary of Parent Issue" it doesn't work.
May you help me solving this issue?

reporter Hi Fidel,
thanks for your fast reply :-) Wish you a happy 2017!
Unfortunately the string doesn't resolve both problems. The solution works fine for the first issue, but the second issue already exists.
My second problem is: If I use the string "[Checked Value of %{13508}] Summary of Parent Issue" it doesn't work. If the summary of the subtask is equal to the checked value (from %{13508}) it works fine, but if the summary of the subtask only contains the checked value (from %{13508}) in it, than it doesn't work.
Do you have any idea?

repo owner Sorry, I didn't consider the bracket characters. Use the following seed string expression:
filterByPredicate(toStringList(%{13508}), count(filterByPredicate(subtasks(), matches(^%{00000}, "^\\Q[" + ^% + "]\\E.*"))) = 0)

Hi Maximilian,
Do the following changes to your current configuration:
Clean parameter "Conditional execution", since it controls the execution of the whole post-function, but we can't use it for a partial execution.
Use the following string list expression to obtain the seed strings:
I love this challenging questions :-). Happy 2017.
