Hello @Yorick Rahou

Welcome to the community!!

As per your scenario, a sub-task has multiple issues across different projects linked to it and should be moved to status DONE when all of the linked issues are moved to DONE.

For this scenario, the rule can be triggered every time an issue is transitioned to the status Done.

The 'Issue Transitioned' even trigger can be used and then branch out to all linked issues or you can define the specific link type as well.

This will help you define the conditions or move the status of the required ticket.

A sample rule similar to this use case from the Atlassian repository is available here.

Kindly accept the answer if this helps resolve the query.

Hi @Yorick Rahou and welcome to the community!

For inspiration, have a look at the Jira Automation Template Library. It has a lot of sample rules, e.g. related to syncing and linking issues.

You may take a closer look at this automation rule - which copies status updates across linked issues. In the example, the automation is triggered by a comment that's being added to an issue, but you can obviously replace that with a trigger on issue transition.

Hope this helps!
