Automation rules not applying to children

Shena Goorawa

Hi, 

I have a custom field called Internal Strategic Driver. I would like to set a rule that when the value is added at the epic level, the same value must be automatically applied to the child issues. 

This is my current rule, but it is not working. Any advice please?

Hi @Shena Goorawa 

Inside of the branch you show, the "Current Issue" is the one branched-to and not the trigger issue.  Thus your rule is copying the value back to itself.

Please change the Edit Issue action to copy from the trigger issue.

Kind regards,
Bill
