Schedule email 1 week after transitioning to

[Marc O'Nions]

I would like a group to receive an email 1 week after an issue transitions to a particular state.

So far I have managed to set this up but without the 1 week delay.

Hello, let me give you some hints:

1. Automation rule A or workflow post function to edit a field value.
   1. Issue transition trigger TO status.
   2. Set proper timestamp (today+7d) to non editable custom field.
2. Automation B
   1. Scheduled run every day at 8am (or other time)
   2. If custom field value (with timestamp value) = today run the sending email mechanism.
   3. Clear the custom field value or leave it as it is (futher days will not be equal to custom field value anyway)

Thank you.

I did the following and it worked:

When Issue transitioned to (my status)

If: Issue Matches JQL:

project = (my project) AND status = "my status" AND status CHANGED TO "Despatched" BEFORE -7d

Then: Send email
