Get all linked issues of child Issue

jan.ambroz

Hi there, 

I am trying to create automation that gets triggered when Epic is changed. I need to get all child issues of this Epic and update some fields and next step is to get all linked issues of each child issue from the Epic and make some updates in these linked issues too. 

I can get all child issues of Epic but get stuck getting all linked issues of each child issue. 

Is there a way to get these linked issues in Automation?

 

Thank you

HI @jan.ambroz ,

I haven't found a way to go an additional level like that. What I have done, is make a change to the Child Issues of the Epic with one automation rule, and then built a second automation rule to update the linked issues when the children change.

You can exclude changes made by Users by using a User Condition and making sure it it is automation that triggers your second rule:

Note: There is a checkbox under the details section that you have to check on the second automation for it to work.
