Jira automation to edit a fix version's name

Question

We have a rather complex setup of multiple fix versions per issue due to multiple products we are shipping with the same code base. We create fix versions like product1-next, product2-next.
Once we create a release branch for a product I need to rename the current -next version of a product to a specific version.
How can I edit a fix version using automation? Out of the box we can only create/release/unrelease versions.

I don't seem to have access to that link - I assume it might be limited to the account owners? Wanted to check in on the progress :)

Thanks, @Kelly Arrey

Atlassian removed public access from that old Code Barrel backlog...which is too bad as there were a lot of good tips / work-arounds in there.

It is unclear if all of the items got cloned over into the new backlogs for AUTO and JIRAAUTOSERVER, so thanks for the new one!

Kind regards,
Bill
