Issue Summary

On windows env, Automation Action "Execute Groovy script" is failing with the input validation error "Script file path must be absolute"

This is reproducible on Data Center: yes

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create windows env
2. Create an automation rule with Execute Groovy script action
3. Provide the groovy script path and the system will not accept any format of the windows path

Expected Results

The correct windows file path must be accepted

Actual Results

Due to the below HTML input validation, the file path is being rejected

<input class="text long-field" type="text" id="atm-rule-item-data-table-absFilePath" name="absFilePath" required="" data-validations="{&quot;^(?:(?!\\.\\.).)+$&quot;:&quot;Script file path must be absolute&quot;,&quot;^\\/.+$&quot;:&quot;Script file path must be absolute&quot;}" value="" title="atm-rule-item-data-table-absFilePath">

Workaround

Option 1

• Open the Developer tool, edit the input field as HTML and remove the validation for saving the file path/rule temporarily. This needs to be done every time you require to save the path.

  • <input class="text long-field" type="text" id="atm-rule-item-data-table-absFilePath" name="absFilePath" required="" data-validations="{&quot;^(?:(?!\\.\\.).)+$&quot;:&quot;Script file path must be absolute&quot;,&quot;^\\/.+$&quot;:&quot;Script file path must be absolute&quot;}" value="" title="atm-rule-item-data-table-absFilePath">

    TO

• • <input class="text long-field" type="text" id="atm-rule-item-data-table-absFilePath" name="absFilePath" required="" value="" title="atm-rule-item-data-table-absFilePath">

Option 2 (should be done carefully as it can break the insight jar)

These steps will remove the validation from the JS file itself

• Update ComponentDetailsEditView.js and redeploy insightx.xx.jar file
  • Take a backup of insight-xxxx.jar(JIRA_INSTALL/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/application-installation/jira-servicedesk-application) and copy it over to a different location
  • extract the JS file

    jar -xvf insight-xxx.jar includes/js/configure/automation/rule/configure/ComponentDetailsEditView.js

• • Update the code below

    556                 const groovyPathError = AJS.I18n.getText("rlabs.insight.i18n.atm.rule.input.validation.error.groovyPath");
    557                 dataObjUIDef = {
    558                     'absFilePath' :
    559                         {
    560                             'inputType' : 'text',
    561                             'required' : true,
    562                             'i18nText' : AJS.I18n.getText("rlabs.insight.i18n.atm.config.field.groovy.absFilePath.label"),
    563                             'description' : AJS.I18n.getText("rlabs.insight.i18n.atm.config.field.groovy.absFilePath.description"),
    564                             'validations' : JSON.stringify({
    565                                 [NO_PREV_FOLDER_PATTERN]: groovyPathError,
    566                                 [MUST_START_WITH_SLASH_PATTERN]: groovyPathError
    567                             })
    568                         },
    569                 };
