Task Work Item is creating by Default by ROVO even we given Other issuetype in the ROVO Instruction

We are trying to create a ROVO Agent were it should create Epic and Stories, But ROVO is creating Tasks instead of Epic and Story Issuetype. 

It's taking Default issuetype. Even after given prompt to use Epic issue type it's not considering the instructions.

How to resolve this issue? any alternative or workaround for this issue?

Welcome @Aruna Vijayan Sailaja 

In your scenario did you specify to Rovo to emphasize on using Epics and Story issue types instead of Tasks?

HI @Nikola Perisic 

I have given prompt like : -

The agent must explicitly set the issue type to "Epic" in the creation payload or form. - Do not rely on the default issue type of the project.

Once agent is asking to check the Work Item before creation the type filed is selected Epic only.

Once I asked to create it, its creating Task

And does it also behave when you have only Epic issue type? I would suggest to test this on a different project.

Rovo agent is taking default issue type for project only. I tried to change default issuetype to Test issuetype, it created Test instead of Task.

I want my ROVO agent to ignore default issue type while creating and it should create Epic.

Instead of focusing on the issue type scheme, just tell it to create Epic issue type.

Hi @Nikola Perisic 


We have given below instructions just to create Epic and Story but still its creating incorrect ones

- The agent must explicitly set the issue type to "Epic" in the creation payload or form.
- Do not rely on the default issue type of the project.

Our agent creates the Epics in 1st Step and then the Stories under the Epic in next steps.
