Automation > Copy Goal from Parent

Matt Richards_q2q9cg

Good day all,

I've configured the rule shown below, and when I change the Parent field on the target issue I can see that this automation runs on that issue successfully, but the Goal value from the Parent is not copied to the target issue. The Parent is an Epic and the target issue is a Task.

I've also tried this with a JSON object in the advanced settings using the customfield_###### for Goal in our environment and that did not work either. 

Perhaps one of you all have a sense of what might be the problem here?

Spoke to Atlassian Support over chat. Apparently the "Goal" field is not the same as "Goals" and the latter is not accessible to Automation, even if you attempt to use a JSON object in the advanced settings.
