Is there a way to automatically transition a task when all related stories are in a certain status? My setup is like so: * Task A is related to ("has to be completed after") Story 1, Story 2, and Story 3 * When ALL stories are in "Ready for QA", I would like Task A to automatically transition to "Ready for QA" The tricky part here is, Stories 1-3 transitioning to Ready for QA is the trigger, and the stories are NOT related to each other, but only to the one task. So, is there a way to write an automation for, when moving the last story to "Ready for QA", move the related task also to "Ready for QA"? Thanks for any help.

I got it! Previously in the trigger, in the JQL, I had "Epic Status" != Done (copy/pasted that from somewhere; I thought this would search for tasks within epics that were not done, but I think it was just searching for issues with an "Epic Status" field, i.e. epics). I changed it to just Status != Done and now it works. Thanks so much, @Jack Brickey !

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; } } }

Automatically transition a task after all stories have transitioned?

So I would consider running an hourly scheduled rule and inspect if all tasks linked to Task A have reached the Ready for QA status and if so transition Task A.

Hmm ok, am I on the right track? I am trying this but it's not working.
