How to automatize creating templated task in JIRA

Question

Hi,

is there a way to set JIRA to automatically make a templated issue if I tell it to do so?

For example, I want to make a new task. option one is by web interface, option two is by an email. I know how to do these. The think I need to do is that JIRA would create a new task with certain predefined parametres and also create some predefined subtasks with predefined parametres.

In reality, it would look like this:

email -> creates task SOME_TASK and also three subtasks SUBTASK_ONE, SUBTASK_TWO, SUBTASK_THREE, which will assign to person A, person B and person C (subtask_one to person A, subtask_two to person B etc.)

I've looked in plugins exchange and in JIRA administration, but without luck so far.

Thank you for your reply.

You can use workflow transitions post functions. Here is an example about creating sub-task automaticcaly http://isolasoftware.it/2014/01/08/create-an-issue-in-jira-with-predefined-sub-tasks/

Issue templates from email are a natural extension to JEMH (currently only UI supported fields can be configured to apply by default), I've logged https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/browse/JEMH-653 with some initial thoughts on how JEMH could support this.  Anyone with email driven templating, please comment on your expected use!
