Automation Help! Parent issues to inherit status of moved sub-tasks

Carina Martin

Hi there!  When a sub-task is moved to 'In Progress', I want the parent issue to inherit/match the 'In Progress' status?

Looks like I can set up automation for sub-tasks to inherit from parent status transitions, but I can't figure out how to do it the other way around? Thanks!

Take a look at this post where it explains how you can do it: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Automation-discussions/Jira-Automation-Video-Tutorial-on-how-to-keep-Parent-and/td-p/1783535
