How to Copy Field Value from Epic?

Question

Hi,

I try to set up a custom field as same as the Epic.

In the "create issue" pop up, the user  set up Epic Link.
Then I would like to copy a field from the Epic to the current issue. Epic URL for example.

I tried to use a post function to "create" transition (Copy Field Value To Linked Issues).
 Here is the information I enter:

It doesn't work.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

I'm trying to do something similar but using "System and Custom Fields propagation to linked Issue" post-function my custom field isn't copied from Epic to Linked Stories during Story creation after selected Epic Link.

Let me know if you resolved the issue.

Thanks
