Automation variables between diffrents issues

[Chasovskikh Kirill]

Hi!

i'm trying to get a field value out of field from another issue.

i'm using automation rule with cycle FOR, that finds an issue with JQL search and assigns a variable "abcdef". I'm trying to use this variable in trigger issue, but it's empty. 

Is there any way to get field value out of the issue from JQL search to trigger issue?

Hi @Chasovskikh Kirill 

as you put the variable into the branch it only „exists“ within the scope of the branch.

I would recommend to replace the branch with a lookupIssues action. This would also filter the requested issue by JQL and you could then use the smart value {{lookupIssues}} to use directly in your trigger issue (comment action). 

Best
