Asynchronous Post-Hooks

In prior versions of ScriptRunner, all post-hooks executed synchronously. This meant that some post-hook triggers, such as those for UI interaction, would not trigger ScriptRunner post-hooks. Synchronous execution can also have a performance impact to end-users because it caused pushes to be blocked until all post-hooks had completed execution.

This release adds support for asynchronous execution in custom scripted post-hooks. This is an opt-in setting because there are some differences in what is possible when executing asynchronously. For example, it is not possible to write messages to the Git Client on push when executing asynchronously.

For more information, see the asynchronous post-hooks documentation.

Admin Only Project and Repository Script Access

By default, repository and project administrators have the ability to configure/execute ScriptRunner scripts (although in a sandboxed environment, for security reasons).

Restricting access in ScriptRunner may be desirable in a highly regulated environment where a customer only wants global administrators to be able to configure hooks/listeners etc.

This release adds a toggle in the Settings tab to restrict ScriptRunner access at the repository/project level to global administrators only. Optionally, groups of users can be granted access, if desired.

For more information, see the Admin Only Project and Repository Script Access documentation.

System Admin Only Script Edit Permission

By default, global administrators have full access to ScriptRunner functionality, including writing custom code within scripts and executing code in the Script Console.

You may want to restrict the ability to configure/execute custom code to system administrators only.

This release adds a toggle to the Settings tab to enable script edit permission for system administrators only. When this toggle is enabled, only system administrators are able to configure scripts that allow custom code. Access to Script Console/Script Editor for non-system administrators is also prevented.

For more information, see the System Admin Only Script Edit Permission documentation.

Ability to Disable Switch User Built-in Script

The Switch User built-in script allows administrator users to temporarily assume the identity of another user.

This script is enabled by default. However, if you have extremely strong compliance requirements, you may wish to disable this feature.

This release adds a toggle to the Settings tab to disable the Switch User built-in script. When the script is disabled, it is not accessible for any user (including system administrators).

For more information, see the Disable Switch User Built-in Script documentation.
