Transition issue when all linked issues of certain linked issue type are marked as closed

[Richard A_ Michaels]

I run a nightly automation which select all the issues in the project which are in a certain state (In Progress) which also have linked issues of type "causes". 

I need to determine if all the linked issues of type "causes" are closed and therefore transition the main issue to the next status

Hi @Richard A_ Michaels

Are you using special link type for the issue type Cause? Are there any other Issues linked by the same link type other than Cause? If not it should be straight forward. 

After this condition just put Action - Transition the issue to the next status.

Hi Tom,

I'm checking for the specific linktype, "causes".

The type of issue, "bug", "story","task" is not a factor

[Tomáš Vlach]

Then if you put link type: causes - it checks only issues that are linked by this type - which in your case is only Cause and with the Condition

issuetype = cause AND status = "closed" it return true only if every Causes which are linked met the condition.

After that just put your action - Transion Issue and it should work right away.
