How to Control the Execution Order & track changes of Jira Automation Rules?

Manik Raaj March 5, 2025
  1. I have around 50 automation rules in Jira, but I need specific rules to execute in a defined sequence. For example, I want Rule #10 to run first, followed by Rule #22, and then other rules how to achieve this ?  Any insights or best practices would be greatly appreciated.  


  2. How to Track Changes in Jira Automation Rules?

    want to know where I can find an audit log that tracks changes made to Jira automation rules. Specifically, if someone removes a condition or modifies a rule, I need to see what was changed, who made the change, and the before-and-after details.

    Thanks!

Hello @Manik Raaj 

1. What are the triggers for the rules? If you have specified triggers other than Manual or Incoming Webhook, the the rules will execute when the action in the trigger occurs and you cannot specify the order in which they execute.

Can you provide more details about your scenario? Provide an actual example of a sequence of rules in the order you would want them to execute. Tell us the trigger of each rule and describe what the rule does.

2. In the Audit Log for each rule there will be entries with the status "Config Change". Those entries will contain all the information that Atlassian makes available about changes to the rule. It will not contain all the details that you want
