Auto populating values of sub task from parent task

[Harshit Grover]

Hi All, 

I am working on Jira Software 8.20v (Data Centre).

I wanted to auto-fill the value of 2 fields in subtask directly from parent task whenever they are created .

I have Studio-Task (Sub-Task) in my Project. Whenever , I add a Studio Task to any Issue Type , it should capture the values of below 2 fields from Parent Issue Type : 

1. Project Teams

2. Scrum Teams

Above both mentioned fields are custom fields and are present in both Issue Types.

Hello @Harshit Grover 

Welcome to the community!!

For the server/ data centre, the feature to copy fields from other issues (parent or others) is not available natively. In order to achieve this, you will need some plugins to help you with this. Some examples which can help achieve this are  JSU, JMWE, ScriptRunner or Automation for Jira

I recommend you review these and select the one that best addresses the use cases.

Kindly accept the answer if this helps address the scenario.

Hi Gaurav, 

So, I was actually able to achieve this using Post-Function. I applied the same in the first transition of the sub-task. 

Post function was by the name of Copy Value From Other Field (JSU).

This is great @Harshit Grover 

This post function is a part of the JSU plugin as mentioned in the name as well.

Kindly accept the answer if it helped you address the scenario.
