Transition work items through a workflow
When your board is grouped by status, you can drag a card on the board to a different column if there’s an available transition set up or if there’s a global transition applied.
Here’s another way to move a work item to a different status:
Open the dialog of the work item you’d like to transition.
Select the dropdown to change the status at the top right corner.
You can ask Rovo to explain a workflow or tell you how to transition work items from one status to another. Open Rovo Chat and enter /explain-workflow to try it out, or select Explain workflow from the status dropdown next time you’re viewing a work item.
What Rovo can see and show
Validation rules: Rovo can access workflow validation rules (including rules enabled by third-party apps), including any parameters in those rules that identify a user, group, permission, or custom field. It will show these parameters to anyone using this skill.
Condition rules: Rovo can also access workflow condition rules. However, it can’t access parameters in condition rules that identify a user, group, permission, or custom field, and this information won’t be shown to users.
Controlling what’s exposed: If you have a validation rule with parameters you don’t want exposed, you can either replace it with conditions or delete the validation rule.
