Cloning Epic and child Stories

Senthil V_hygz0l

Hello @Trudy P Claspill - In one of your post with this automation rule for cloning Epic hierarchy with stories, I am getting an error message but the clone seems to be successful. 

Can you please confirm if this a valid error?

Your Automation Rule:

TRIGGER: Issues Linked
  - Link Type: Cloners
CONDITION: Issue field condition
  - Field: Issue Type
  - Condition: equals
  - Value: Epic
BRANCH RULE/RELATED ISSUES: JQL
  - JQL: "Epic Link" = {{destinationIssue}} order by key asc
  ACTION: Clone Issue
    - Project: Same Project
    - Issue Type: Same issue type
    - Fields to set:
      - Summary: {{issue.summary}}
      - Epic Link: {{triggerIssue}}
  ACTION: Delete Issue Links
    - Link Type: is cloned by
ACTION: Edit issue

    - Epic Name: {{issue.key}}

 

Error Message on Edit Issue Action (last one)

Unknown fields set during edit, they may be unavailable for the project/type. Check your custom field configuration. Fields ignored - Epic Name (customfield_10009)

No fields or field values to edit for issues (could be due to some field values not existing in a given project):

Hi @Senthil V 

Epic Name is (or is becoming) a deprecated field; Epics use their Summary now for the Epic Name functionality.

Is there a reason you're trying to set this field?

I'd also change Epic Link > Parent, as Epic Link is also going to be deprecated.
