automation rule

[david.meltzer]

I am trying to create a rule that will iterate thru JCL filter that returns all completed sub-tasks and sub-bugs for a given set of sprints.

For each issue, I want the rule to check the status of the parent, and if not completed - to send an email - containing the issue key (of the child)

(We typically do this manually and promote the sub-tasks/sub-bugs to tasks/bugs so they can be resolved when we close the sprint)

I think the rule is working but I cannot get the child issue,key (or other fields from the child) when I create the email...

Hi @david.meltzer 

Once the rule is inside of your branch to the parent, you can use {{triggerIssue}} to refer to the child issue.  Inside of the branch, {{issue}} then refers to the parent issue.

Kind regards,
Bill

thanks - that worked!
