[Script Runner] fast track transition when linked issuetype = XYZ

Question

I am trying to integrate multiple workflows and one of the conditions I am trying to setup is that , workflow A triggers an issue creation for workflow B, however, when the new issue gets created in workflow B, I want it to drop directly in the "In progress" Status instead of "To-Do". how would i write up this condition in scriptrunner?

Note - workflow/issuetype B is also used independently.

You should create a usual custom field, not a scripted field. And then fill it in the post function which you use for creating issues from your workflow. How do you create issues from the workflow? What plugin do you use?

Thank you for the approach @Alexey Matveev , this i the one I would like to pursue. However, I am trying to setup the custom field here but again am stuck with the scripting part, I looked up the Scriptrunner documentation but could not find how to identify an issue if it is generated by another workflow or initiated by the current version.

Could you possibly point me in right direction if this data exists somewhere please?

Thanks
