I have set up an automation flow and for most parts it is working as intended but it fails at updating the asset attribute and I am at a loss on how to update it. Please see attached screenshots to see how the flow is setup - the lookup object is working correctly and the two log steps return the right information.

But the automation rule fails as it is not able to find the lifecycle attribute for the ioCardObject reference. See following error message. The error message makes sense as CP1-3868 doesn't have an attribute called Lifecycle, but I am trying to make it reference ioCardObject which is where I think i am failing.

My edit object asset options do not include mechanism to change reference type and I was not able to find any documentation on how this is supposed to be setup. Screenshot 2026-07-21 at 1.07.57 PM.png

 

I would really appreciate if I can get some feedback from others who might have implemented this successfully.

Two things:

- the advanced smart value branch should be changed to the for AQL branch - this way you can use the edit object one - it will identify the object and the attribute(s) that exist so you can populate it - you can directly add the lookup objects AQL query here

- idk if necessary, but I have issues with using object smart values - create a variable for this string instead.
