Rule execution on issue sending smart values from version

Suporte JRetail

Hi,

So I have 2 projects, one where the issue is created and another for the developers where the version is created. When a version is created in project DESENV we send an e-mail that creates an issue on project AJ, is there a way to create a rule that sends a slack message with smart values from the version? I need the version name, description and items on the version.

If there is a way to link the issue to the version it would be great too, because in that way I could create ramification rule to get the version smart values I need.

NOTE: The issue created has the version name in it.

Hi @Suporte JRetail 

Yes, most of what you ask may be implemented with automation rules, although there may be differences from what you mean.

 

First, issues are normally linked to versions with the Fix Version and / or Affected Versions fields.  Versions are specific to one project, and so the versions in your development project could be assigned to the issues in that project.  This could be done manually or using a rule, depending upon the triggering criteria.

 

Next, automation rules can send Slack messages: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-automation-actions/#Send-Slack-message

You may want to send a message when the version is created, or for other version activity.  Please look here to learn the smart values available for the version-related triggers: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-development/#--version--

 

Finally, as the versions are by project, you could not link your one project's issues to the versions in another.  There may be alternatives, such as linking the issues instead to access the version data.  I recommend writing down an example of what this would look like, with issues and versions in the projects, and using that to decide how to proceed.

 

Kind regards,
Bill
