How to copy fields from another issue?

Question

Hello team,

What I do is create the issue A, then using the Automation I create the issue B copying custom fields from A by the automation rules. Then I want to create the issue C from the issue B but copy custom fields from the issue A.

Tried many ways but no luck :(

Hi Pavel - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

We run a rul that first links them - see screenshot.

Then we create another rule that fires when that particular link is used for a newly created card.

Hi @Pavel ,

I have used the following in a rule where the assignee is taken from a linked issue:
{{issue.issuelinks.inwardIssue.assignee}}

Is this useful to you?
