While working with JWT plugin, is it possible to trigger an automation rule when an issue link is deleted ?

Also, can we have 2 automation triggers for an automation rule?

Hi @SWAPNIL SRIVASTAV 

Using the JIRA automation rules, it is possible to trigger a rule when an issue is deleted.

Regarding 2 automation triggers, some of the triggers support multiple values, but there does not appear to be a way to have two different triggers.  As a work-around, you could:

  • Create a rule for your first trigger, and create a new condition (such as a distinct comment)
  • Create a second rule for your second trigger, creating the same common condition as above
  • Create a third rule to do your desired action. Ensure you set the option for this rule that allows it to be triggered by other rules.

Best regards,

Bill

Hello, and sorry that I missed the link part of your request.

Looking at the automation rule triggers, it does seem like you can trigger on a link delete also.  Please look here for more information:

Sorry, I missed that you were on Server version.  Here is the document for that version, including the link delete trigger:

Hello @Bill Sheboy ,

Thank you for the reply.

Please correct me if I am wrong but the links you are giving me are not for JWT (JIRA Workflow Toolbox)plugin provided by Decadis. I am looking for Automation Rules of JWT plugin.

Thank you for clarifying.  I believe you will need to directly contact that markeplace vendor for help, or wait until one of their staff responds to your question. 

I added their name as a tag to this question to raise the visibility.
