I want to create a rule that will automatically change field values and will be run after subtask will be converted to task
Hi @hanna.podoliak -- Welcome to the Atlassian community!
To save you some experimentation time, I tried this with automation rules and it does not work. The rules cannot detect an Issue Type change when the source is a Convert To... trigger. We are submitting a defect to Atlassian for this problem.
Best regards,

You will need a plugin in order to be able to add some automation.
Not advertising for any Marketplace Vendor but since you are a cloud user ScriptRunner is your first option.

Hi Hanna - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!
Automation For Jira should be able to do that and comes for free with Jira Cloud.
A little more information:
There are two types of automation:
Automation Basics: https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/guides/expand-jira/automation
You can do this via global rules to apply to all projects also. You'll need to be a Jira Admin/Site Admin, go to Jira Settings > System > Automation Rules (left-hand menu).
For more on using Automation For Jira see these help pages.
That's interesting. So it won't work for a Field Value Changed trigger on the Issue Type field?
Nope. I tried with and without source actions (e.g. Edit) and the rule never fired. I even tried Move to see if Convert To... was considered a different path, and that didn't help.
