Problem:  How to create a notification configuration that would send out digest of changes and comments in issues happened since yesterday?

Solution

1) Create a new Notification configuration of type "Jira issues digested messaging". 

2) Set the value to Fired on input. This should be a CRON expression that represents when the notification configuration should be run. Use www.cronmaker.com to generate it for you.

For example, the value "0 0 9 1/1 * ? *" means that the notification configuration will be run at 9AM every day. When you enter your cron, Raley will show you when it will be run the next time as follows:


Pay attention that all the times are evaluated against UTC time zone. 

3) Now you specify a JQL rule that will be used as a filter for issues. Only those which match against it will be included into the digest. Use Jira issue navigator to make the JQL rule easier.

4) Specify subject of the email. 

5) Specify recipients using TO, CC and BCC fields. You can use a mix of values picked from combo-box'es and free-text expressions. 

Recipients will be calculated as following:

a) For given list of issues retrieved according to JQL, resolve all recipients emails based on recipients codes specified in TO, CC, BCC combos. 
b) In addition to recipients found in a), add recipients defined in free-form text/expression for TO, CC and BCC textboxes to each issue
c) Create sending groups: each containing TO, CC, and BCC email addresses AND list of issues to be sent with that group
d) If Send As = "Single Email", then sent out those groups, each group at a time
e) If Send As = "Multiple Email", then split each sending group into small groups where each subgroup has exactly 1 email address (TO, CC or BCC) and the same set of issues as parent group. Send those subgroups, 1 group at a time.



6) Finally, specify a message template. You can use our Template Wizard to simplify generation of the template, just make sure you use Table layout so, issues will be shown as HTML table.

Here's a little example on how to render both, changes and comments added since yesterday. By yesterday, here we mean current time of notification configuration execution - 24 hours. 

#foreach ($issue in $issues)
  #foreach ($history in $issue.changelog.histories)
     #if ($jirassimo.isAfter($history.created, $context.yesterday))
        #foreach ($item in $history.items)
            $item.field was changed from $item.fromString to $item.toString
        #end
      #end
  #end
 
   #foreach ($comment in $issue.fields.comment.comments)
      #if ($jirassimo.isAfter($comment.created, $context.yesterday))
        Comment by $comment.author.name: $comment.body
      #end
   #end
#end
