Link a newly created issue to any other issues with same field value.

Issue Created > Link Issue > IF JQL = "X"

Ive been trying to use JMWE post function but cant do it.

Hi Rob,

Below is an example of an automation rule I use to do the same thing. The field in common is Account Name. Also add any Conditions needed after the Trigger step.

Hi @Rob B 

Where are you executing this action in a post-function of the create step of a workflow?

You could do this with an automation rule.

But in a post-function, use the JWME "Link issues to the current issue" option , configure the link logic and add a conditional execution, like;

issue.get("customfield_12345")?.value == "A"
