Kateřina Blahová October 1, 2024

Hello,

I need help with automation of copy labels to sub-task from Parent issue when the label is newly added and sub-tasks already exist. 

I have this rule, but it is not working

Hi @Kateřina Blahová,

instead of transition the issue to ... your action should be edit issue. You can then select the labels field and copy the value from the parent issue there.

Hope this helps!

Hi Kateřina,

Replace last step with:

1.Then:Edit Issue field

2.Choose fields to set: Labels

3.Click on the (...) Select Copy, Click on Current Issue and set Issue to Copy value from to: Parent Issue

 

Hope this helps.
