Can't branch rule as it requires a version in the context for this option

[Sebastian Somi]

• I have a jira issue in which I added a fix version.

• I have created an automation, which will upon transition of this issue release the version.

• Additionally, what I wanted is that all of the issues in the fix version that was released and are specific status will transition to the next status (marked read).

•  However, the issues are not being transitioned. I am getting the following error.

Hi @Sebastian Somi 

That branch type works when the trigger is for a version (e.g., version created).

Instead you will want to use a JQL branch to find the issues which have the same fix version as your trigger issue:

project = myProjectName AND fixVersion IN ({{triggerIssue.fixVersions.name}})

Please note: if your issues have more than one fix version assigned you will need to adjust for that case.

Kind regards,
Bill

Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction. I ended up doing the following. It seems I had to define Issue Type again in order to get the result I wanted.
