Automatically sync between issue summary and All-Work list view column value

[Rosalin kandapan]

• We created a Forge custom dropdown field Affected Epics on the Story issue type, which displays correctly in the All-Work list view.

• The field stores the selected Epic as a string (e.g., JAP-218: EpicD) at the time of selection.

• When the Epic summary is later updated (e.g., from JAP-218: EpicD to JAP-218: Epic1test), the list view still shows the old value.

• The value (summary) updates only when the dropdown is manually reselected on the Story.
  the All-Work list view displays the raw value stored by our Forge code.

• Is there a way to automatically sync Epic summary changes to the Affected Epics field without manual re-selection in All Work list view page?
  or is it possible to customize All-work list view page with forge

Hi @Rosalin kandapan ,

or is it possible to customize All-work list view page with forge 

I'd say it's probably not possible - at least not with Forge. What you could try is to maybe create some kind of automation that would update "Affected Epics" field and see if that would update the display in "All work" 🤔

This does feel like an issue/oversight from Atlassian. I've checked the official bug tracker, but couldn't find anything. Have you tried reaching out to Support team to report this? 👀
As more and more people are using Forge, I guess it could become an issue for more folks out there.

Cheers,
Tobi
