Automation for filling in fields

[Pedro Henrique Barreto Carvalho]

Hi everyone,

I have a question.

I created a custom field that is inside a story, corresponding to those responsible for the child items, but I would like to assign the custom field to be autocompleted whenever I direct a responsible person to the child item. It's possible?

Example:

                    custom field - other responsible(history)

                     field responsible for the item (subtask)

After, filling out the responsible field, it must be filled in the custom field other responsible

Hi, Pedro,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

From my understanding, you have a multi-user picker field on the Story where you'd like to maintain a list of all the assignees of the sub-tasks.

Could you provide a screenshot of the current rule you have?

My idea would be to trigger an automation when the sub-tasks have the assignee modified. When that happens, you have a rule to branch out on the parent to add the assignee of the trigger issue to the parent Story's custom field.

Cheers,

Filipi Lima

@Filipi Lima I'm sending my flow screen(english)

• value changes for
  • for father
    • then: change item fields(advanced)

Hi, Pedro,

On the "Então: Editar campos do item", instead of using the advanced options you should be able to achieve your goal by:

• Clicking on Escolher campos a definir
• Select the Demais Responsaveis field
• Pick Add Demais Responsaveis from trigger issue
• Make sure to select the checkbox "Adicionar aos valores existentes" (not sure on the exact translation).

I'm more familiar with the Data Center/Server automation, so there might be small differences but all these options should be available.

Hi, Filipe Lima,

Thank for return.

as I use the project managed by the team, Jira does not let me choose the custom field, but only through the command code. Is it possible to do this via code?

[Filipi Lima]

Hi, Pedro, I'm unable to test this myself, but see if this works for you - see how I reference the triggerissue on it:

{
  "update": {
    "Demais Responsáveis" : [{
      "add": {
        "id":"{{triggerIssue.assignee.accountId}}"
      }
    }]
  }
}
