Copy fix versions from multiple Sub-Tasks to parent

Question

Hello! I'm using the Jira Automation Plugin and trying to copy the fixVersions from the Sub-Tasks to the parent.

This is supposed to be a bulk edit to be done once, before changing to only set the fixVersion in the parent.

My rule triggers for every Sub-Task and adds its fixVersion to the parent. I believe it is done in parallel so some of the changes get overridden by the sibling Sub-Tasks.

Is it even possible to do this bulk edit?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Hi

I want to set the fixVersion from the Sub-Task on the parent, not the other way around.

At the moment I have a Scheduled trigger with this rule.

You should be able to do this with Automation for Jira by setting up a “scheduled” automation (not a triggered one). You would do something like this:

you choose the Copy from parent in the action. BTW, once the automation runs successfully you should disable it.
