I want to be able to update the category fields of all child issues to match the value of the category field entered in the Epic using Automation. The 'Category' field is not available in the Automation UI list, so I'm stumped.
Hi @Jamie Edmondson
First thing, not all supported fields are listed in the automation rule, drop-down lists. To learn if your field is supported, and to learn its exact smart value, please use this how-to article. Essentially you identify an example issue with your field, call a REST API function with a browser, and search for your field on the page.

Next once you have your field, you can use the advanced edit with JSON to set it. Please look here to learn more: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/advanced-field-editing-using-json/
Kind regards,Bill
