Single space automation doesn't seem to work

Saskia van _t Hoff
December 18, 2025

We are on Jira Cloud and have set up a very simple rule:

When a ticket changes into status X, notify user A (defined via email address), within a single space only.

FireShot Capture 056 - Rule builder - Automation - Jira - [qualitycompliancesystems.atlassian.net].png

However, User A gets notified of all tickets changing into status X across all spaces.

We tried to update the single space to multi-space and selected only the relevant space, but this did not resolve it.

Is this a bug or are we missing a very simple trick here?

Hi @Saskia van _t Hoff 

First things first: the rule could be glitched / broken in its stored information.  This can happen in various ways, such as a bad import, too many edit / publish cycles, or an editor error.  

To check this, please disable this current rule, re-create it from scratch, and test again.

 

If that does not help...to explain this symptom, please post the following for more context:

  • an image of the complete rule in one single image for continuity
  • an image of the complete rule Details section
  • an image of the audit log history, showing all the recent executions and changes
  • an image of the audit log details for a recent execution which ran for a work item not in the scope of the project / space

 

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi @Saskia van _t Hoff 

As mentioned by @Hari Krishna this will be the case.

Use specific status changes based the workflow used.

Hi @Saskia van _t Hoff ,

It seems there is no issue from your side, but sometimes project scope may not work, try this directly with condition and check wheather it is working

To: User X (user)
