How to add an automation upon an event in the Project?

Inna S

Hi, 

we have unified Sprints across the organization. 

In the old system, we would create a Sprint in the top level project and let the tool cascade the creation on all the projects in the hierarchy. 

As there are no Project hierarchies in Jira and no Project groupings of any way, I wonder if there is a way to automate the Sprint creation for all the projects in the org upon creation in one of the projects.

So far I do not see the way to trigger Sprint creation in other projects.

What is the way to do this?

Thank you,

Inna

Jira doesn't have sub-projects, but that's not an issue for this.

Sprints do not belong to projects, so the whole idea of "create sprint for many projects" is flawed.

A sprint is an object created from a board.  A board is a view of a selection of issues.  which can be set to include whatever you want.

So when you create a sprint, it can draw in whatever you want, by virtue of being part of the board.

This means there's no need to create sprint creation in other projects.  Create a board that includes all the projects that are going to use it and create the sprint.  It'll cover all the projects.
