How to hide a transition based on the Didit checklist completed field

This page shows you how to set up a condition in a Jira workflow. The condition hides the transition from a user. If the checklist is not complete, the transition will not show. If you would like to reject a transition when a checklist is not completed, try using our built in workflow validator. You must have Jira admin permission in order to add a validator to a Jira workflow. If you do not have Jira admin permission, request assistance from the Jira admin of your instance. Please keep in mind the general best practices when editing Jira workflows. This workflow could be shared with other projects, try to be aware of how many projects you are changing.
