Change status of epic, when Task transits

Leena Pratheepan July 29, 2024

 

Hello

I have a question and am facing a challenge. I want the status of my epics to be moved automatically based on the task. In itself, the rule is quickly created, but what if I have a task in backlog and a task in closed, then Epic status should go “In progress”. Likewise, if I have a task in the status “In Planning”, “On Hold”, “In Progress”, Epic should be “In Progress”. Is there a condition in Automation when all tasks are closed, all epics are closed. If a task is at least “In Planning” or “On Hold”, should Epic be “In Progress”? Epic workflow = Backlog -> In progress -> Closed 

Thank you in advance

Hi @Leena Pratheepan -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Please try the Related Issues Condition with JQL in your automation rule.  That will allow checking if some, none, or all of the related issues match your condition to decide how to update the parent epic.

With your scenario, you may want to use an if / else block around those for each case needed.

Kind regards,
Bill
