Automation

Question

I want to make an automation as below.

1.

If I label a task A (of Project A) with ' Lable A'

then, that task A shall be imbedded on Project B's Jira board too.

->it means task A is shown on both Project A board and Project B board.

2.

If I copy the link of task A and paste it on a certain Confluence page, then automatically task A being imbedded on Project B's Jira board.

I can't figure out how to make automation of those 2 cases.

Please give me the logic of automation of those two cases.

Hi,

For the 1st requirement you do not need any automation rule, rather you need to adjust the filter for your project B board.

If you make the filter like this: project = 'project B' OR (project = 'project A' and label = label-a)
that should solve your problem.

For the second requirement it is bit unclear to me the reason behind te ask. Probably you can elaborate a bit more on the reason behind the ask.

Hi @심여울

I'll answer these as two separate questions.

Question (1)

It doesn't sound like automation is needed here - you just need to adjust the Board filter for Project B.

To do this, you'll need to be a Board Admin and then...

* Go to your board, and select the breadcrumbs (3-dots icon) in the top-right
* Select Board Settings
* Select General from the left-hand menu
* Select the hyperlink Edit Filter Query
* Modify the JQL to include...* project = "Project B" OR (project = "Project A" and Label = "<Label Here>")

* Save the query

If you're not the filter's owner, you might need to take some additional steps:

* If "Save" is not an option, choose "Save As" and create a new filter
* Go back to the Board Settings > General menu
* Go to the Saved Filter section, and replace the old filter with your new one (click/edit)

Question (2)

This isn't (easily) possible - because you can't reference a linked Confluence page in JQL natively. The data needs to be in Jira to be reference like in Question (1)

Is there some other data point in Task A in Jira which could be referenced in JQL?
