Generating checklist automatically in an issue when it is moved from one status to the next one

[bbonifaz@lledoiluminacion.pe]

Hey, I want to know if there is any way to configure the status or transitions on a board so when you move an issue from one status onto another the issue automatically gain the prestablished checklist on itself. This is kinda different compared to when you want to verify that the checklist on an issue is completed before moving it to another status, this is moreless validating the checklist had been done, and what I want to do is generating new checklist progressively as it is moving forward from one status onto another one.

Please I trust some of you will have the perfect solution for this requirement.

Thank you very much!

Hello,

If you are on Cloud then you can use the Update Issue Custom Field post functions. 

If you are on Server, you can do it with the Power Scripts add-on:

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/43318/power-scripts-jira-script-automation?hosting=cloud&tab=overview

With this add-on you can create a post function with a code like this:

#{checkbox name} = " value";

This post function will set a value to the required field upon transition.

You can find more about post functions here:
