Creating a Master Project that pull the name and End Date of all other projects

Question

Hello,

I am trying to make a Gantt Chart(Timeline) that uses automation to create Epics based on the names of other projects in our company, and assigns the set end date of the project to that epic. I have never made automation that searches other projects.

Any Help would be appreciated!

Hi @Lee Tarter

Although I am unclear what problem you are trying to solve...

You cannot search for Projects with features like JQL as that looks for Work Items only  (previously called "Issues"); it cannot search for other entities, such as Projects.

To search / use a list of Projects for a site, the REST API endpoint to get projects may be used, called using the Send Web Request action in a rule.

Kind regards,
Bill
