Hi @Arunachalam Rm 

Whenever you ask for help with an Automation Rule it will help us to help you if you provide:

1. what type of project is this (e.g., company-managed, team-managed, etc.), 

2. images that show your complete rule.

3. images showing the details of any relevant actions/conditions/branches.

4. images showing the Audit Log details for the rule execution.

5. Explain where the issue is.

These questions are not for not willing to help, but to have community members understand on how automation works.

Hi @Arunachalam Rm , nice use-case to help automatically make the summary a little more descriptive and helpful!

For the XXX app, where would the automation pull that value from? Is it stored already in some custom field that you want to pull from?

Thanks @Harrison Ponce for your reply. i am looking for automation for below scenarios given below.  

- XXX keyword is constant. we can hardcode it in the automation.

- XXX keyword is available in Labels or Components field in Jira.

Sure thing, as long as your trigger is pretty solid, you can pull off adding to the beginning of the summary by doing something like pictured below. When you use the {{issue.summarry}} smart value, it will copy what is currently there and then you can add to it, either with hardcoded values or through other smart values (e.g., labels, components, etc.)

This automation could get a little out of hand, so extra time on the trigger part will be super helpful!

Please let me know if this doesn't answer your question. Best!
