How do you use automation ?

Question

Hi everyone,

I would be very curious and pleased to hear what you are using automation for ? I haven't used it yet and I feel I am missing some possibilities. What are you use cases and how did you solve them with automation ?

Thank you for your answers :)

Hi

Automations are ideal for repetitive tasks, processes or steps that you always do when any action is triggered. If you automate these repetitions, you save time and the processes go faster.

For example, if you mark a certain action (check) and you have to generate a document that may have an associated template, then instead of doing it manually, you can generate a trigger (automation) that takes said template and fills it with the necessary information.
I hope I have been helpful

@Fanny Tastet In the "Top automation use cases" block here you can see automation use cases that Atlassian thinks are frequent.

They also offer a few pre-built automation rule templates. That set also deserves a look if you are searching for inspiration.
