How do I group conditional nodes?

[Quang Nguyen]

Currently I have an automation rule that runs like this:

Scheduled automation

• Search with JQL
• If A
• And if X
• Then Send Email 1
• If Y
• Then Send Email 2
• If Z
• Then Send Email 3

How would I update this to read:

• Search with JQL
• If A
  • If X
  • Then Send Email 1
  • If Y
  • Then Send Email 2
  • If Z
  • Then Send Email 3

Or would I need to always put A into the initial Search JQL? I want to not do this if possible because I have a lot of these rules to process, and I'd prefer to put everything into one rule than duplicating it multiple times.

Thank you!

Here's what the rule looks like currently:

I think you're describing a long-standing shortcoming of Jira automation.

There's a workaround you can try.
