nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Can I create my own triggers for automation rules?

Hi! Here's the problem I have.

I want to solve next task: change task's status when status of linked issues changed to Done. Type of link is "blocked by".

Problems starts at step 1 - choose a trigger for the rule. Cannot find trigger that tracks linked issues status.

Do you have any ideas?

Hi @Vladimir Tarusov and welcome to Community!

You can actually do it the other way around. Let's say you have 2 tasks: Task A is blocked by Task B. You need to add a rule like this:

When Task B is transitioned to Done
Then transition Task A to Done

It would look like this:

Hope this helps!

@Manon Soubies-Camy hi and thanks for welcome!

It seems the way for cases when we have only one Task B that blocks Task A.

If we have also Tasks C, D, E that also block Task A, the status of A should be changed only when all (B, C, D, E) are Done.

I have no idea how to look for all of them.

Thanks for the additional details, I think it would work with something like this:

When Task B is transitioned to Done
Then go find tasks that are blocked by the current one
And if all linked tasks are Done
Then transition Task A to Done

Not sure of the link types, I'm always confused between "is blocked by" and "blocks", so you may need to adjust them
