Hi Community,

I have to write my first groovy script for jira and my issue is how to change story status to done if all tasks in this story is done.

I appreciate all the help!

In this case you have to write a script yourself. First of all, epics, stories and tasks are connected by links. You can get all linked issues to an issue. You can find more info here:

Then you need to check the statuses of all linked issues and transition the parent issue, if all the linked issues are in the required status. You can find more info here:

Thanks for answer Alexey!

I'll look your link, but in mine case jira's issues are epics, storie, tasks... not tasks and sub-tasks.

If you have the ScriptRunner add-on and tasks are actually sub-tasks, then better use the built in function, called Transition parent when all subtasks are resolved

If tasks are not subtasks then it will not be a simple script.
