How to set automatically change the status of the Epic issue when the start date is started?

[Aco QA]

I want to set the automation rule for Epic issue to auto change the status when start date is started.

You can do this, but it will depend on what you mean by "start date is started".

You need to be able to query for the epics you want - so your query will probably need to include something like "Issuetype in (EPIC) AND Start date[Date]" >= -1d   " - you'll want to play with the -1d and set it to something you're comfortable with, use the basic query interface to specify the date/time you want, then switch to the advanced view to get the JQL you'll use in the next bit).

Once you're able to accurate query for the Epics you're expecting to change, you can set up a Scheduled automation to run whenever you like (daily?) and automatically transition those <query results> to whatever you want.
