Jira Cloud Automation Manually Triggered not working accordingly

Fabien Frances

Hello,

I have created a simple automation within a project to clear the watch list of issue type Risk, and then add myself as watcher.

It does work on the issue type risk itself when triggering it, but it does not update the watchlist of all other issue type risks.

So I basically have to trigger it on every risk to clear the watchlist.

My Automation rule is:

• When: Manually triggered (contains the group I am a member)
• If: Issue matches JQL is project = "project_name" AND issuetype=Risk
• Then: Remove watchers
• And: Add watchers (myself)

So running it from the issue itself is working, however it just clear the watchlist on the current issue and not the other issue type risks.

 

Thanks

Kind regards

Hi @Fabien Frances 

You need to add a "branch rule / Related issues" in your automation instead of the "if"

In type of "related issues" you need to select "JQL" and add your JQL in that screen. 

I think that will do the trick.
