Automation not copying custom value to task level issue after epic created

Question

I am trying to copy details put into a form that creates an epic into tasks that are created through an automation but I can't get them to copy through. I have tried all the built in copy functions (Trigger work, parent, epic work) but none copy that info into the new task.

Here is where in the automation I see the copy through options

The field in the red circle on the right should match the department listed in the epic just above it

I'm sure I'm missing something simple....

I figure it out, simple error. I didn't have a the custom field department32 available in my task and subtask. It was only active in my Epic

The epic is the one I am trying to copy from. I have tried Trigger Item, Parent Item, Work Item, Current work Item
