Forge Action Validators let your app intercept Jira actions before they execute, giving your app the power to allow or block operations based on custom business logic defined through Jira Expressions.
In this session, we'll cover:
What action validators are and why they matter for app developers
How they fit into the Jira operation lifecycle
How to configure an action validator in your Forge app manifest
Context variables and expression patterns you can use
What's coming next — new action types in the pipeline
Live demo — building and testing validators in real-time
Whether you're building marketplace apps, enterprise tooling, or internal governance solutions—if you've ever wanted your app to enforce rules before something irreversible happens in Jira, this session is for you.
