Hi,

I have a Jira issue with a missing field value. This issue has linked issues where that value is not empty.

What I want to do is create an automation that reads that value from any linked issue and assigns it to the trigger issue. In other words, i take the value from a linked issue and I save it in the trigger issue.

How can I do this? I tried looping through the linked issues, editing using JSON and using JQL but nothing seems to work.

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Juan Cruz de Urquiza 

Whenever you ask for help with an Automation Rule it will help us to help you if you provide: 

1. images that show your complete rule.

2. images showing the details of any relevant actions/conditions/branches.

3. images showing the Audit Log details for the rule execution.

4. Explain where the issue is.

These questions are not for not willing to help, but to have community members understand on how automation works.
