Issue with automation linking erroneously

[Jon]

hi, we have an automation that is supposed to link issues from a different project and it seems to have worked incorrectly for the first time where it linked issues that dont seem that should have passed the rules. Did the system work incorrectly or is there something wrong in my automation.

Hi Jon,

Can you share the rule you  have and the audit log for when you run it? 

[Jon]

i figured out the issue. i needed to add a condition that if the field was empty it would not pass. thanks though!

Great! Glad you figured it out.

Hi @Jon 

Share your rule here and explain the logic that should be used to link the issues.
