Creating issue in current project due to trigger in source project

Question

Hi all,

I need some thoughts here. Is there a way I could implement a rule which creates an issue in current project (to which I belong) due to trigger from a story created in another project (guess I do not have access). I have created a rule for the other way around (from my project, issue created in destination, but this is the other way around).

Hi @JunoB

The only two ways to do that: the way you did (rule in source-triggering project) or a global/multi-project scope rule.

There are limits to the number of global/multi-project scope rule executions per month, depending on your license level.  Please look here for more information: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/explore-jira-cloud-plans/

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi Juno,

Yes, you should be able to do that. Just use Automation for Jira as the Actor. Or another ID that has access to the other project.
