How to automate from bitbucket release tag to Jira fix version

[Amirul Hafiz Bin Abdul Rahman]

So what I'm trying to achieve is when dev pull request in bitbucket, we want it to automatically update in the fix version in Jira. So dev wont have to manually enter the release from bitbucket to Jira.

Hi @Amirul Hafiz Bin Abdul Rahman ,

You should be able to set this up.

What you need before is to connect Jira to Bitbucket > follow this article: Connect Jira to Bitbucket 

Once you make a connection, ensure that developers include the Jira item key in the pull request title, branch name, or commit messages. Here's one related troubleshooting article: Jira Issue keys do not show on Pull Request Jira tab 

Now, in Jira, create an automation rule:

• Use Pull request merged trigger
• Add condition if needed
• Add an action to edit the work item fields
  *you may need to use smart values and some custom logic to determine which fix version to set

Also, here's the link to the automation library that may help out: Jira automation templates for Bitbucket, GitHub or GitLab 

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Tobi
