Hey Vik, without knowing much about your automation rule yet, it's likely that you will need a smart value.

It differs depending on the context of how you are executing the rule, but hopefully this documentation about smart values in Jira automation helps you find the right one.

Once found, enter it in the field where you need it to appear.

Hello @Vik Tailor 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Please provide a screen image showing your entire rule.

Without knowing what your rule currently does it is difficult to advice you on how to change it.

If you don't already have the rule created please describe what you want the rule to do; i.e.

WHEN this specific event occurs in Jira

THEN execute this specific action

THEN execute this next specific action
