Register the date of the first change of status of a issue

[david_contreras]

Hello, through automations I want to know how I can register in a custom field the date of the first change of status of a issue, thanks in advance

Create an automation that triggers on the transition you want the date for, something like this:

(I used due date here since I don't have a date custom field.)

Hi @david_contreras 

Yes, and...to Mikael's suggestion:

If you want this date to be "only" the first change to the specific status, please add a condition after the trigger to check if the custom field is empty.  That will prevent updates to the date when an issue cycles (backwards/forward again) in flow.

Kind regards,
Bill
