Hi @Rob B

Will try and help best I can but hoping you can clarify some things

  • I understand you want to edit the "Summary" of a work item
  • I understand you want that edit to add "Duplicate"

When you say, "if there is an existing issue with "Field A = qwerty". Do you mean if there is a work item in your project with a custom field called "Field A" and you refer to the value of as qwerty or are you meaning if any work item has the summary "Field A = qwerty"?

It may be helpful for me to understand what issue you are trying to resolve as there may be other solutions that get you what you need

Thanks!
