Automation help

Raju Mandapaka

Can you help me with this format, we are cloning issues using automation and storing cloned value (key) in a url type custom field, so that user can use this link and go to cloned issue.

I am using a smart value as {{createdissue.url) which generates a lengthy url in that custom field.

Can you help me in such a way that only cloned key should be come in that custom field.

Eg:

{{createdIssue.url}} generates https://abc.net/browse/ATV-237

my requirement is it should generate only ATV-237 and should be hyperlinked to its URL.

Thanks,

Raju

Hi Seetham,

Try this for the update to the custom field:

https://abc.net/browse/{{issue.Cloned By}}

Hi @Raju Mandapaka

You could try changing the custom field type to a text field and use {{createdissue.key}} smart value. That should return the key and Jira should automatically create a link if the issue exists in the system.

Thanks,

Tim

Hi @Raju Mandapaka

For Hyperlink the field should support wiki formatted data so here are the steps

Create a Paragraph Custom Field which supports wiki format
Add the value as - {{createdIssue.key}}

Let me know if you have further queries

Thanks,

Hi @Raju Mandapaka

I have to ask why you're trying to use a custom field and generate a URL rather than setting your rule to generate a link between the two issues in the create issue action?
