Automation update story dates based on sub-task dates

[Daniel Jones]

Hello,  I am trying to use automation to update the start and end date for the parent story which I have been able to do, that is not the issue.

The challenge is getting the dates I want-what I would like to do is make the story start date, the same as the earliest start date of any of its sub-tasks and make the story end date the latest of any of the end dates for its sub-tasks.

How would I loop through each of the sub-tasks, find and compare the start and end dates of them all and only keep the earliest and latest dates to update the parent story?

I know how to do this with other scripting/languages, but not sure in this JIRA automation.

Note-we have JIRA Server, not cloud

Thank you for any help.
