Automation for Jira: Delete Issue Links

Dennis Zhao

Hello,

 

I'm attempting to create an automation that will unlink tickets after 'x' amount of days. I figured that this should be fairly simple as "automation for Jira" has an action to 'delete issue links'. 

 

1. Trigger - Cron Scheduled w/ specified JQL
2. Delete Issue Links 

Ran the automation and it succeeds in locating the ticket but "No actions were performed"

I was able to locate a similar issue with a work around but has not worked for me (AUT-1925 )

Following the steps

1. Trigger - Cron Scheduled w/ specified JQL
2. Add value to the audit log - {{issue.issuelinks}}
3. re-fetech issue data
4. add value to the audit log - {{issue.issuelinks}}
5. Delete issue links

 

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-74527 - The mentioned issue seems to be related to Clone issues but reach beyond that (for visibility)

Hi @Dennis Zhao 

I tested this rule in our instance and it worked fine (albeit I used a manual rule run).

Can I confirm what the value of steps 2-4 are? Just want to confirm what the audit log steps are doing for your rule!
