When a given field changes on Project A, I need to update the label of its linked issue.

Question

I have a Project A with linked issues on Project B. When a given field of the issues in Project A changes, I need to update the label of the linked issue in Project B.

I tried this using rules but to no avail so far, mostly because the Edit Issue action refers to the trigger issue and doesn't allow to change it.

amazing, thanks!

Yes, since you are in a branch the focus is no longer on the issue that triggered the automation, so yes you would be able to edit the linked issue and set the label.

Hey Mikael, I'm using that structure, what I can't do is set the label on the linked issue (does Transitioning the issue, the last step in the flow there, allows you to edit the linked tickets?)

Thanks!
