Hi @siva Apply Custom script post-function on subtask workflow to display parent issue key in Subtask description field.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.UpdateIssueRequest
//import com.atlassian.jira.config.properties.APKeys

//def baseUrl = ComponentAccessor.getApplicationProperties().getString(APKeys.JIRA_BASEURL)

issue.setDescription("${issue?.getParentObject()?.getKey()} is the parent issue key")

Hope it works for you!

Thanks

Hi @siva

You will need to use a post function that overwrites the description with the parent's key.

Here are the details: https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/copy-field-value-from-parent-issue-to-sub-task-upon-creation
