How to make dependant stories move sprint relative to pre-requisite story

Max Twemlow

Hi Community

 

I have a chain of dependant stories, all linked via the is blocked by field, and I've scheduled them in subsequent sprints:

Story 1 -> Story 2 -> Story 3

Sprint 1 -> Sprint 2 -> Sprint 3

 

We do agile, so often an epic will get pushed back e.g. I'll move all the stories to a new sprint:

 

                 Story 1 -> Story 2 -> Story 3

                Sprint 2 -> Sprint 3 -> Sprint 4

 

Currently, I'm moving each story individually. Is there a way to make all the sprint fields dependant as well? i.e. I would like to tag the sprint value of story 2 to be Sprint of Story 1 +1 

That way when I re-schedule story 1, the other two stories would move back as well

 

Thanks

Max

Hi @Max Twemlow ,

for my knowledge you can't do that, btw you could try to setup an automation like the following :

Trigger: Field changed → Sprint
Branch: Linked issues (“is blocked by”, “blocks”, etc.)
Action: Edit issue → Sprint = {{triggerIssue.sprint}}
The problem is how to identify the next sprint in the automation.
