Hi @Glenn_Riley1 !
Depending on if there are additional details this should be a very straightforward use case for Automation!
You will want to start by using a trigger for your rule.
In this case it will be issue transitioned
Next you will want to filter to only Issue Type Story by adding an IF Condition that checks if it is a Story.
Next you want a Branch Rule to look up the Parent (aka Epic)
Under the branch is another condition for the epic to make sure it isn't already in progress.
Lastly is an action to update the status .
Here's a screenshot of how it could look:
Let me know if this works for you or if you have additional questions or requirements!
