If epic gets a label removed then remove the same label from children issues

Bruno Ferreira_0aslxp

Hi, 

I am trying to create an automation that, once an epic gets a label removed, then the same label gets removed from the children issue, in case they exist (they should exist because I have an automation that adds them and that one works). 

 

However, I dunno how to set the automation to do that. I tried as you can see in the screenshot but I get an error because there is not value to copy from, since it is a remove operation.

Hi @Bruno Ferreira -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Have you tried using the changelog / fieldchange smart values to remove the "deleted" labels: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-issues/#--fieldChange--

Specifically, you could try using this smart value in the Labels to Remove option:

{{deletedFieldChange.values}}

If multiple values could be removed, you will need to expand that expression to remove a list of values.

Kind regards,
Bill
