automatic creation of subtasks

Adilet Seit May 27, 2025

Hello team
Please tell me how I can set up automation of creating subtasks in the required task? For example, there is an epic A inside task B and I need subtask C to be created automatically every week, tell me how I can implement this?

Hey @Adilet Seit 

Create this automation:

1. Trigger - Scheduled and set to use cron 0 7 * * 1 ? and set the JQL to the wanted work-item - make sure you tick-off the "Only include work items that have changed since the last time this rule executed"

2. Add action "create sub-task" and set the fields you want.

 

This will result a creation of a new sub-task under the parent work-item in the JQL each week on Monday at 07:00AM. 

 

Hope that helps.

Ariel.

Hey @Adilet Seit 

Before i can answer, let me understand:
You have an Epic A, inside of it there is a child - task B.

Now, you want to create a sub-task for task B - correct?

Also, what should be the rule for running the process? what will the JQL will look for? for example all tasks without sub-tasks?
