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; } } }

How do I ensure that subtasks take the 'team assigned to' value of the parent issue?

I have created a rule but it doesn't appear to work. Pretty new to automation rules though.

I was hoping there would be an 'inherit from parent' type functionality for subtasks but assume not.

First question - how would you have sub-tasks already for an story/task just created? Also, check the audit log.

Hi @Paul Treadwell ,

you don't need a branch "For sub-tasks", as you can just add a condition "Issue Type = Subtask" and then an action "Edit Issue" and add the following smart value for the Team Assigned field:

{{issue.parent.Team Assigned To}}

Let me know if this helps,

Sorry, maybe I was unclear.

The Story/Task already exists. I go in and add a subtask. I would like the subtask to automatically have its 'team assigned to' value to be set the same as the parent issue.

Thanks I set it like this in the end and works fine. Based off your suggestion

thanks
