Issues form values as environment variables

When creating or modifying issues, the values on the issue form will be output to the script's environment as environment variables. The table below lists these environment variables.

Environment variable	Value
RAZOR_ATTR_<attr name>1	The value of the named Razor attribute.
RAZOR_STATE_<state name>	The value of the named Razor state.
RAZOR_LATEST_VERSION	Latest Razor version.
RAZOR_LAST_MODIFIED	Date/time this attribute was last modified.
RAZOR_LAST_MODIFIED_INT	Integer value of the modification date.
RAZOR_NUM_STATES	Number of Razor states.
RAZOR_TIME_CHECKED_IN	Date/time this attribute was last modified.
RAZOR_TIME_CHECKED_IN_INT	Date/time this attribute was last modified.

1 The environment variables for X_OF_MANY and ONE_OF_MANY types will be limited to 1024 characters.

In the Reports file, if the third field is "env", the report script will be invoked once for each selected item (just as it is when nothing appears in field 3). Instead of extracting a copy of the issue, the user's environment will be set as described above.

E-mail addresses specified in the Permissions file¹ will expand environment parameters that appear there. This allows e-mail to be sent directly to addresses that appear in fields on the form. For example, if the file Responsibility contains e-mail addresses, the entry $RAZOR_ATTR_Responsibility in the Permissions file will send e-mail to those shown in that field.
