automatically create a subtask linked to the same issue when the previous subtask is done

[Javanshir Mustafayev _ HIT]

Hi,

I have a process where multiple steps should be created when the previous step is done.

Each step is a subtask under the parent issue type. I can create the first subtask easily with automation, but if I try to create another subtask when the previous is done it fails because I can't select the parent issue for this ticket.

how to set automation to automatically create a subtask linked to the same issue when the previous subtask is done?

Please help

Hi @Javanshir Mustafayev _ HIT , do you have an automation setup that is not working or just looking for guidance to get you started? It would look something like this...

trigger - issue transitioned to done

condition - issue type is subtask

branch on parent issue

action - create subtask

give it a try and let me know if you get stuck.
