[b.a.firas]

hello guys , 

in my project i have a lot of epics 

under each epic there will be a lot o stories and under each story there will be a lot of sub-tasks

all epics are assigned to a different agent 

Q1 : how can i insure that each  story/subtask created under an epic will be assigned automatically to the one who created it ,?

in each epic i assigned a component . 

Q2 : how can insure that each story/sub-task will be assigned automatically the component of the epic

Hi @b.a.firas  - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

if you are creating the stories and subtask automatically buy an automation rule when you create the epic, it would just be a matter of copying the reporter from the trigger issue to the assignee.

If the epic already exists, and you create a new story or task, you could have an automation based on issue created that would use condition based on the issue type and the parent not being empty. Then add an action for edit issue and copy the reporter from the parent to the assignee field.

i need an automation so that all the component in all of the issues created under an epic will be automatically the same component as the epic

How are you creating the issues under the Epic? Manually or by automation? 

[b.a.firas]

manually

[John Funk]

So if you are creating the issues manually, and linking them to the Parent (Epic in this case) as you create them, then you will need to do an automation rule based on:

Issue Created trigger

Add Conditions for the issue type being created or any other information relevant

Then add an Edit Issue action and add the Components field. 

Then Choose Copy from Parent.

Hi @b.a.firas ,

You can achieve through automation

still can't figure out how the automation will be for the component
