We hope to provide Workflow Validation, Condition and Post Function in the near future. In the meantime please use the following workarounds to add and delete using Jira Automation

Add & Remove Label Manager items through a workflow transition without overwriting existing label

Example Usecase:

When the status changes to from status “In Progress” to Done add the Label “label1” in “red” to the Label Manager custom field “DoD” IN-UAT and remove the Label UAT-Done for your field Label .

Trigger: Issue Transitioned → Select From And/Or To Status

If: Check that the label is not yet selected.

Use “Advance compare Condition”

Use the Smart value {{<labelManagerFieldName>.labels}} and check ‘does not contain’ <labelName>

...

Edit Issue: New Action → Edit Issue

...

Add the following code into the field. Replace ‘DoD’ customfield-ID with your Label Manager Field Name customfield-ID.

{
	"fields": {
		"DoD    "update": {
            
          "labelscustomfield_10042": [{{#DoD.labels}}"{{.}}",{{/}}"label1"],
                       "colors": [{{#DoD.colors}}"{{.}}",{{/}}"red"],

                      "labelSource"remove": "{{DoD.labelSource}}"
		}
	}
}

Replace ‘label1’ with the color you want the new label to have.

Color options: ‘red’, ‘orange’, ‘green’, ‘grey-light’

If you want no color, you still need to add ‘grey-light’ here
