Jira Automation: check for status change if issue has a certain status before.

[Stefan Siegel]

Hello,

I am a newbie when it comes to Jira automation rules. Therefore my question:

is it possible to create an automation rule which executes a command (seeting a field value) only when an issue changes from status A to status C but not when the transition is from B to C ?

Thanks for a hint.

Try this option within the Automation configuration screen.

Using the drop-down lists, you can select both the SOURCE status and DESTINATION status values.
