Jira Automation: Smart Values of a Release (Tasks)

[David Spohr]

Is there a list of Smart Values available for a version release?
I need the list of issues it covers, to let people know what the release fixes.

Thanks.

Hi @David Spohr -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

For a question like this, context is important for the community to help.  Please post the following:

• what type of project is this: company-managed, team-managed, JPD, etc.
• an image of your complete automation rule in a single image for continuity
• images of any relevant actions / conditions / branches
• an image of the audit log details showing the rule execution
• explain what is not working as expected and why you believe that to be the case

Until we see those...

From what you describe, I suspect you are using one of the version-related rule triggers, such as Version Released.  In that case, only the {{version}} smart value is available with the attributes noted here: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-development/#--version--

To access the work items assigned to that version, you may:

• When you want to access each one, branch to "issues fixed in the release" to find the ones in a done status
• When you want a list of the issues assigned to the version regardless of status (such as for including in an email / message), use the Lookup Issues action with JQL to check the "Fix Version" field

Kind regards,
Bill

Perhaps if you run an automation rule through all issues and collect those where 'issue.fixVersions.name' contains the name of your releasethat could help?

Perhaps the rule could set a "relates to" link in all related issues?

Exactly, that worked for me, thanks.
Added a new block that looks up the issues, using this rule:

fixVersion = "{{version.name}}"
