Unable to run a project automation

Melody Wong_znz8lw

I setup a simple automation to run when a ticket is created by a specific user. I noticed in the audit log that the config change was logged but this rule has never run. I am the "Actor" of this rule and all the proper permissions (ability to view and comment) were assigned to me. How can I get this automation to run? All posted documentation in the community points to a manual way to run this, but I am not seeing an option.

Hi @Melody Wong

Welcome to the community!

Issue updated doesn't work for changes in assignee: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-automation-triggers/

You will need to use the issue assigned trigger and then use a condition to check the actual user.

Hi @Fabian Lim

I've created a rule to mirror what you've suggested. I am still not seeing the rule run. Is there something else I'm missing?

Thanks,

Melody

Could you please share audit log details?

Jack Brickey

You mention "to run when a ticket is created by a specific user" but that isn't what either image projects...

trigger - issue created

condition - reporter = xxx

action - ???

@Melody Wong -

Welcome to the community. As mentioned by @Jack Brickey , please provide what is the audit log. In the audit log, it will give you more information (details) on why the rule is not fully executed.

Jack is correct. You should use the issue created. I thought you were checking after being updated.

Sorry attached the wrong screenshot. This is my automation with the issue created trigger and the condition being if I am assigned.

I have created a new ticket and i'm still not seeing this automation working.

Attached above is a copy of the audit log.

Thanks for the updated screenshot.

Was the assignee for the issue got populated at issue creation time? Or it is done after the issue was created?

If your test case where assignee is added after the issue is created, then your rule will never fired.

Can you check on that?

Best, Joseph

Hi @Joseph Chung Yin ,

The assignee was assigned at the point of issue creation. The updated and created time stamp for the issue is the same. Therefore there were no updates after creation.

@Melody Wong -

Can you try to create another issue for your project and send us another screenshot of of the audit log?

It is because your latest screenshot didn't have anything else beside the configuration was changed from your rule.

Another thing for you to check would be that if the rule was created in the right project or not. If the rule was created for Project A, but you were conduct testing against another project, thus the rule will never be triggered from your issue creation operation in the other project.

Best, Joseph

Here's a screenshot of a new ticket created

Here's a screenshot of the automation audit log. No updates have been logged since the configuration, even though there's a ticket that should have triggered this automation.

Here's a picture of the configuration, the scope is set to project "SR" and as you can see from the first screenshot the project matches the scope.
