Automation with AWS 1.8 Release Notes

14 May 2020

The Utoolity team is pleased to present Automation with AWS 1.8 – this release introduces remote conditions with AWS for Jira Service Desk automation, Jira workflow transitions, and Bamboo builds and deployments.

You can now use the Invoke Lambda Function action to evaluate remote conditions so that you can control Jira Service Desk automation rules via the Automate with AWS if condition, control Jira workflow transitions via the Automate with AWS workflow condition and Automate with AWS workflow validator, and fail or succeed Bamboo builds and deployments via the Automate with AWS task.
