Description:

When Copying a workflow using the "Copy" action on the Workflows page (ListWorkflows.jspa), the UUID of every Connect post-function is not regenerated, resulting in two independent post-functions sharing the same UUID.

So, when third-party apps use Jira REST API it returns HTTP 500 if post-function ID is not globally unique.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a post-function with some app action in the workflow A
2. Export the workflow XML and search for the field remoteWorkflowPostFunctionUUID
3. Copy the workflow A to generate the workflow B
4. Export the workflow XML of the workflow B and search for the field remoteWorkflowPostFunctionUUID
5. Will be the same UUID

We created a video reproducing this problem as you can see here: JRACLOUD-72099.mp4

Expected results:

• It is expected to each post-function within the workflow have different UUID

Actual results:

• Duplicated UUID in the new copy workflow.

Notes

This happens because it is not generating a new UUID when copying the workflow.

Workaround

• Delete the post-function and add it again.
