Rule to automatically ensure links from cloned issues

Question

Hello everyone,

I have a question about Jira Automation:
I synchronize two projects with Jira Automation: If I create a story with certain conditions in project A, then my Jira Automation rule copies the story to project B. All relevant data is transferred to the cloned ticket and the ticket has the same name.

I would now like to achieve the following with an automation rule: Story 1 is copied from Project A to Project B using my Creation rule. A bug A is created on story 1 in project A. With my creation rule, bug A is copied over to project B. Story 1 and Bug 1 have a relationship in Project A. The new rule ensures that the cloned story and the cloned bug realize that they also belong together and link them to each other.

Can this be accomplished?

Thanks in advance!

Hello Trudy Claspill,

* Here ist the rule:

Hello @Sina

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

What version of Jira Data Center are you using?

How do you establish the relationship between the Bug and Story in Project A? Are you using Issue Linking?

You said

A bug A is created on story 1 in project A. With my creation rule, bug A is copied over to project B.

What is the "creation rule"? Can you provide screen images showing the details of that rule?
