Automation not triggering for cloned or moved issues

[Athira Krishnan]

Hi,

I have an automation running in a specific project where a custom field (SLA) is added whenever an issue of a certain type is created. There are instances where the issue is created in another project and is cloned/moved into this project. In these cases, automation is not triggered. What is the best way to handle this?

The screenshot shows the automation trigger.

Hi @Athira Krishnan 

The problem is that within your automation you're filtering only for "create issue" operations (last box of your screenshot). Maybe try adding "move issue" (if it's possible to select) or try removing this filter completely.

Best wishes,
Mara

Hi @Athira Krishnan 

You would need multiple rules with different triggers to do what you asked:

• issue created -- to handle issue creation or cloning
• issue moved -- to handle issues moved from another project

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi @Athira Krishnan ,

Created Automation rule Based on Field value change, it would be user picker or any other field, issue should be clone to different project.
