I want to trigger a Jira Automation rule when a version is released

I want to trigger a Jira Automation rule when a version is released:

1. Branch Rule/related issues
   • Issues fixed in version
2. If Issue Status is "Current" & field Introduction version is not "Empty"
   • then all issues from step 1 should get transitioned to "Active" status
3. If Issue Status is != "Current" & field Introduction version is "Empty"
   • then set status = Current and field Introduction version = {{version.name}}
   • and transition all issues to "Active" status

@Vineet_Kotian, 

It seems like you have a pretty good handle on what you want to do. Have you tested this and something isn't working?

Thanks,

Kian

@Kian Stack Mumo Systems I have created the below automation rule. For some reason, this rule doesnt transition all issues from 2) & 3) to "Active" status. Maybe I'm sequencing the conditions incorrectly here?

You have to run it inside of two branching statements. The reason for that is because inside the branching does not allow for If/Else statements. So when you run your automation, none of the issues inside of your second set of conditions will ever get run. If the first condition isn't matched, the issue will stop processing. By splitting them yup into two branches you can run each If condition by itself.

Thanks @Kian Stack Mumo Systems. Separating the 2 branching statements worked perfectly well!

I'm glad to hear it worked for you!
