Using Automation to Remove Stack Rank

[Tom Johnson]

I would like to remove stack rank value or set to a specific number when a story transitions to done. Is there a way to do this in Jira Automation. I see that you can check for updates to the status field, but it only give the trigger options for when status is added, deleted, or any change. I am looking for something a little more detailed. 

 e.g. when status changes to done or rejected, stack rank is set to 99.

Hi @Tom Johnson 

First thing, is Stack Rank a custom field for your issues, or do you mean the built-in Rank field?

Next, have you tried triggering your rule on Issue Transitioned, selecting the desired TO status values?

Kind regards,
Bill

Thanks @Bill Sheboy The stack rank is a custom field. I think I was trying issue updated, not transitioned. This worked. Thank you.
