Automatically add Confluence page link in Jira ticket based on a Custom field

Question

Hi,

I want to add a Confluence Page link to my Jira ticket automatically based on a custom field value, for example we have a field called Type and it has a value "Activity", when ever the user selects the Activity as a type then a weblink of confluence should added in that ticket. I have tried to create a automation rule, but no luck.

can you please help me with this automation rule.

Thanks

Hi @Theersa Konakala

Looks like this function isnt possible at the moment, workaround is to add a comment with Confluence page link.

Please check this post for more details, it has a ticket in the backlog of Atlassian for the same.

Hi @Theersa Konakala

are you trying to link an existing Confluence page or create a new one?

it would be nice to know if there is a way to link existing page, what i know is that you can create a new Confluence page and have it linked using automation.
