ScriptRunner code for: copy Epic custom field to every Epic child (story) for Jira Cloud

What would be best approach to get an automatic update (copy) of custom fields from an epic to issues in the epic?

Once an epic has been created, any time someone creates a Task or Story and links it to an Epic, I would like to have two custom fields from that Epic copied into the newly created Task/Story. CF IDs are 10027 & 10060.

I am using Jira Software, Cloud instance. I have seen many ScriptRunner Post Function scripts available in the Community for the similar requirement but they are all meant for Jira Server. 

Any help or sample code would be appreciated.
