Using new "Action Items" Feature in automation for creating a ticket and adding a description

Konstantin Siegert

Hey everyone,

first of all: The Action Items feature is great Using "[] XX" create a quick and easy to use checklist inside of my tickets descriptions  
PS: Referring to "Introducing Action Items"

I wanted to make use of this new feature in my automation rules, as I used tables beforehand and checklist are giving a better overview to the description of my tickets

So for my testing I tried (just focus on the [] or "/" part):

For "{{sprint.name}}" content needs to be maintained for the following tickets: ||Ticket||Description||
{{#lookupIssues}} |{{url}}||
{{/}}

[] DE
[] AT
/ DE
/ AT

Unfortunately the format doesn't seem to be applied correctly via the automation rule:


Expected:

 

So my question is as simple as: Is there any way to use the new jira action items in automation rules, so that their format is applied as a checklist item?

Thanks and BR

Hi @Konstantin Siegert 

this has been discussed beneath your linked introduction.
I guess you will need to set these tasks via the advanced edit.
