Default Comment based on Transition

River.EngumYTTWH — Mon, 16 Feb 2026 19:38:04 GMT

It seems the only way to change the default comment, when transitioning states, is to change it for the entire final state.

Is there any way to have the default comment be based on the transition instead of the final state?

In the lifecycle definition you can change the default comment

So the answer is no, I cannot have comments based on transition rather than final state. Thanks!
