Automation copy version from epic parent to childs

[Jonathan Porteau]

Hello,

I'm a bit new to automation on JIRA. I can't seem to make it work.

I want to :

- When I edit a field

- Type of ticket is Epic

- For all the childs

- The field has the same value as the epic parent

When I edit the field it's not doing anything to the childs.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @Jonathan Porteau ,

a few questions.

1. Are the stories in the same project as the Epic?
2. Is the option "Only include issues that have changed since the last time this rule executed" active?
3. What information is in the rule's audit log after changing the version field in the Epic?

Regards, Marco Brundel

Thank you for your very quick answer!

1-Yes they are in the same project. They're all tasks or bugs

2- Yes it's active

3- I didn't saw that. It says that no action has been done because my epic ticket doesn't correspond to the condition

At point 3, do you mean the issue is not issue type "Epic"? But another issue type?

I just don't understand why the condition is not valid.

Hi @Jonathan Porteau ,

that is indeed very strange.

Is a JQL condition issuetype = Epic an alternative?

Incidentally, it remains inexplicable that your EPIC does not meet the condition.

It's working! Thank you for your help!
