Hello @Yeswanths

If I understand correctly, you’re trying to clone an issue into another project and then keep the fields in sync, right?

In that case, I can suggest trying our app Elements Copy & Sync. It allows you to clone and sync a full hierarchy of issues with all their content (summary, description, custom fields, comments, attachments, etc).

Don't hesitate to check the documentation, it’s really quick and easy to set up.

The app is for free during 30 days (and it stays free under 10 users).

Hello @Yeswanths 

In addition to what @Camilo Galleguillos said, the rule that you set up will need to be a multiple-project scoped rule, listing both project 1 and project 2 in the Project Scope on the Rule Details page. Multiple-project scoped rules can be created and edited only from the Global Automation page under the administration page for System.

If the rule Project Scope is only Project 2, then the rule would be able to make changes only to linked issues that are also in Project 2.

Additionally, if you use the specified link type to link Project 2 issues to other issues also in Project 2, then the rule will attempt to update those issues also. So, within the branch you may want to add a Condition to check that the Project of the linked issue is Project 1.

Hi, @Yeswanths

For the linked issues to be edited you need to use a branch component, else your "Edit issue fields" action will be pointing to the trigger issue. It will look like this (You still need to set the right issue links as in your example):

Hope this is helpful!
