create trello card when task moved to specific status with a linked pull request

Question

In our process, we have a Trello board for the tech leads for issues in the review status. so, the developer needs to create it manually after moving his cards on Jira.

I need to create an automation rule in Jira when a. subtask is moved to in review status while there is a linked pull request to it. is this achievable?

Hi @Mona M_ Abd El-Rahman ,

We don't support this yet with Automation for Jira, but I've created a feature request to track this for now at https://codebarrel.atlassian.net/browse/AUT-2263. Thanks for letting us know!

In the meantime the only way you could get this to work is to use a fairly difficult to setup webhook integration.

So in Trello, you'd have to use the REST API:

Then in Automation for Jira, you'd have to configure an automation rule, that when an issue is transitioned as you described, to send an outgoing webhook:

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Andreas
