You can add, change, append values of Smart Checklist content using Jira Misc Workflow Extensions (JMWE) add-on.

Smart Checklist can be tightly integrated and expanded with JMWE tools (read add-on documentation)

Use Case: Append Smart Checklist items while transitioning Jira issue

   • Jira  Server : "Set issue, user or project Entity Property value (JMWE add-on)"

4. Set Property Name to update to:  

   Code Block
   com.railsware.SmartChecklist.checklist

5. Using entity properties, to add a value to the checklist, you should use the "Groovy Expression" option of the "Set issue, user or project entity property" post-function with a script. If you want to keep/use current values of the checklist - add to the beginning of editor converted values of "com.railsware.SmartChecklist.checklist" property itself and then add and "new items" using Formatting Guide.

   Code Block
   JsonOutput.toJson(issue.getEntityProperty("com.railsware.SmartChecklist.checklist")+"\n- new item 1 \n- new item 2\n- new item 3")

   The reason why using "Groovy Expression" is a must and a "Groovy Template" won't work is because the checklist's Entity property contains newlines, which need to be encoded in JSON (as "\n").

6. Save Post Function by clicking "Add"

7. Check added post function and Publish Draft

8. Then when you try to move a Jira Issue from any state to "In QA" (in our case) - you'll get a new piece of Smart Checklist checklist and new items added
