When a user selects a value from an Assets dropdown in Jira Service Management, fetch the asset's description and append it to a text field.

Steps:

  1. Go to Project Settings > Automation > Create Rule.

  2. Trigger:

    • Field value changed

    • Select your Assets dropdown field.

  3. Action: Lookup Objects

    • Use IQL:

      ini
      Name = "{{issue.customfield_XXXXX.name}}"

      (Replace with your dropdown field’s ID)

  4. Action: Edit Issue

    • Select the text field you want to update.

    • Use smart value:

      css
      {{issue.customfield_YYYY}} Asset Description: {{lookupObjects.Description}}

      (Replace with correct field IDs)
