customfiled B depends on customfield A

1. Performance issue(takes few seconds 2 cascade or appear list on customfield B)

2. While changing options on customfield A, the old value on customfield not automatically removes.

To report the value of a cascading field (field 2) with the value of another cascading field (field 1) in Jira Cloud Automation, you can use the following sequence of actions:

jsonCopy code

{

"fields": {

"customfield_FIELD2":
{"value": "{{issue.fields.customfield_FIELD1.value}}",
"child": "{{issue.fields.customfield_FIELD1.child.value}}"
}

}
}

Replace "field1" and "field2" with the names of the custom cascade fields you created. This code sets the value of the cascade 1 field to the value of the cascade 2 field. Note that the value of "child" is optional, depending on whether or not your cascade field has child options.

To use this code in Jira Cloud Automation, follow these steps:

* Go to the automation section in your Jira Cloud project.
* Create a new automation rule and select an event that triggers the rule.
* Add an "Edit Issue" action.
* Select "Run code" as the action type.
* Copy and paste the above code into the code field.
* Make sure that the names of the cascading custom fields correspond to the names of the custom fields that you have created.
* Save the automation rule.

With these steps, you will have set up your automation to report the value of one cascading field with the value of another cascading field.
