How to change default status for new created bugs?

[Mikhail Sysoev]

I have already configured project with several issue types with the same workflow (Epic, Task, New Feature, Bug). 

All new created issues have default status 'Backlog'. But now I need to change default status if users create 'Bug' — it should have default status 'To Review'.

How I can do this?

Hi @Mikhail Sysoev 

please feel free to check out Solved: Can you change the default status on new issues to... (atlassian.com)

This points to Configure the initial status | Atlassian Support what seems to be slighly outdated, but you should be able to map this to current version and your needs.

I've read this article but there is no any info how to set default status for certain issue type, not for all

Maybe create an automation, which will change to status of create issue of bug type to the one you want it to have?
