Add new options to a select list via automation

Question

Hello, I would like to know if I can add new options to a single choice select list through automation or some other way.

What I want to do is that when an epic ticket is created in the project, the name of that ticket is automatically added to the dropdown list.

Is this possible? How could I achieve it? preferably with automation.

Would it not be doable by using something like this approach?

Hi @Daniel Bermudez

Do you still have JSW alongside JSM, or just JSM?

I'm asking to clarify if Epic Link is available - or restricted due to product choice.

@Daniel Bermudez -

In JSM by default, you can use Issue Link functionality to reference back to the Epic issue.  Typically, Epic issue type is used primarily for Jira Software Application product and not JSM product.

Hope this helps.

Best, Joseph
