Problems editing issues that are the result of a "look up issues"

[German Dobrilovich]

Hi! In jira automation, how could I edit issues that are the result of a "look up issues"?

I leave the detail of the automation where the look up issues finds the correct issues, but does not apply the configured edition.

Thank you very much for the help! we finally solved the problem using this JQL in a "Branch rule / related issues"

Ah, yes, that is a simpler solution than using a Lookup Issues action.

Hello @German Dobrilovich ,

With the way your rule is written the Edit and Link actions are being applied to the Trigger issue, not the issues found in the Lookup Issues action.

You have to use an Advanced Branch to iterate over the issues returned by the Lookup Issues action.

@German Dobrilovich -

Well stated by @Trudy Claspill , you will need use "Advanced Branching" to loop through the issues found in the the lookup issue action.
