Transition User story status, according to its related Tasks

[ori gal]

Hello,

I am using User Stories and Tasks, and connecting them via a "Relates to" link.

I would like to add two automations:

1. When one of the related Tasks transitions to "In Progress," the corresponding User Story will also transition to "In Progress."
2. When all related Tasks are transitioned to "Done," the corresponding User Story will also transition to "Done."

Can you help me build these automations?

Thank you!

Hi Ori,

Can you share with us the two rules you have created already? If you have not created yet, give it a shot first and then post them here.

Okay thanks. Try this. 

Add a Condition after the initial trigger for Issue Type = Task

Add a Condition after the Branch for Related Issues condition.

Select Linked Issues for the Related Issues. Then for the Condition choose All match specified JQL. For Matching JQL use statusCategory = Done

Remove your current Condition for Status equals Done and the one for Linked issues present. 

Give that a try.
