How do I create a rule to automatically assign a hard coded value to a field in Jira?

John Chiappetta_44ow0w

I want to be able to assign a value to a field that will stay constant every time we create a new issue.  For example, we have a field called application and when a new Jira issue is created, I would want to application field to be updated to "Blackhawk".  Just need to know the steps.  Thanks in advance.

Hi John,

Create a rule with an Issue Created trigger. 

Then add any Conditions needed. If this happens every time the an issue is created, but only on a certain project, then make it a single project rule and you wouldn't need any conditions - unless it only happens for certain issue types, for example.

After any needed Conditions, then add an action for Edit Issue. 

Select the Application and then put Blackhawk in the blank are for the field.
