Ticket transfer to another project

[Konstantin Löscher]

Hello,

I have been faced with the challenge of giving a ticket to another project that also has a ticket system for a while.

I am trying to solve this using automation, here it is triggered by a certain process change. In the automation, the ticket is cloned and passed on to the other project, this works great, but unfortunately the author (who was cloned) does not receive a notification when you write a comment to the customer.

Is there any way to make it work like a normal ticket, so that you can write to the author directly via the ticket?

Thank you in advance.

Hi @Konstantin Löscher , Supporting the other answer to this query, i would suggest to add one more action in the automation to add the actor as the watcher to the cloned ticket this way the actor/author will receive each and every notification happening on this cloned ticket.

Hope this is helpful to your query. Thanks

Hello Konstantin!

What you describe seems to be related to the notification scheme of the target project.

Check the notification scheme and see if "Someone made a comment" has the reporter as recipient in it. If you use a JSM project, also take a look at the "customer notifications" section and make sure the recipients are configured as you need them for the respective actions.

Hey, 

there the author is listed as recipient.

So you're not using Jira Service Management, correct? And what you see in the notification scheme tied to the target project is this: 

If so, I have no idea left (unless someone messed with the "events" in your jira instance which is rarely the case)

Just a suggestion, because I have not done myself this in automation - 

1. Do you really need to Clone? Is it not possible to simply transfer to the other project? 

2. In case you really need to clone, maybe you can try putting the original author/requestor as a Watcher for the new one?

Hey,

1. Unfortunately we need automation because the support doesn't know which project (ticket) it should go to

2. If that's the only way the author can get a notification, then I'll try that

I just tried to set up the observer, but unfortunately you can't define it when cloning
