Automations - Can you set a notification when ALL stories in an epic complete?

[Gail]

I have it working so any time any story in epic completes it notifies BUT.... can you set the rule to not trigger unless ALL stories are completed?    It may be a stretch.

Thanks

I haven't worked out all the details, but I think after triggering the issue you could use the lookup action and send the email in a condition based on the count of issues returned.

Your lookup action would execute a JQL for issues that are children of the epic and that meet the condition "statusCategory != Done".

This post references a youtube video that explains how to conditionally send an email based on the number of issues returned by a lookup action.

Hi @Gail 

Yes, and...to Trudy's answer:

To do what you asked, you would need a rule that triggered on an issue transition AND checked JQL to only trigger once; that does not exist.  Trudy's idea on checking for any non-done issues with a lookup issues seems like a great approach, although it will trigger any time an issue transitions.

Kind regards,
Bill
