How can I populate some fields from the linked issues for example

If I create story and when I choose another issue type I want some filed to be filled from the linked issue for example the assignee or any other custom filed  

or any add on that make this function without coding.

 I create the rule below but it execute the action over issue B and I need to copy from issue B to Issue A 

and blow is mentioned in the rule and I don't know where I configure this 

Rule executes when an issue is linked to another issue. {{issue}} will always refer to the source issue, so if ISSUE-A is blocked by ISSUE-B, this rule will execute on ISSUE-B. To access ISSUE-A, use {{destinationIssue}}, and to access the link type, use {{linkType}} (e.g. {{linkType}}='Duplicate').

 

my Rule is below

Hi @Mohamed Saad Taha 

You need to remove the Branched condition and only use the Edit action and copy from the destination, as detailed in the image uploaded in my first post.

 

Best regards
