How to copy the value of Account from an Epic to a task of that epic?

Peter Ebraert

Hello,

 

We are running the cloud version of Jira, and have the Tempo plugin and the Automation for Jira plugin.

Does anyone know how I can copy the value of the Account field (a custom field introduced by the Tempo plugin), from an Epic to all underlying tasks upon a change on the epic?

 

I did not find that field in the drop down proposed by Automation for Jira and suppose I need to do the copy by means of Jsson.

 

I made an automation rule and tried the following JSSON code, but got an error when the rule got fired.

{
"update": {
"Account": [
{
"set": {
"value": "{{triggerIssue.fields.Account.value}}"
}
}
]
}
}

Hello Peter,

As mentioned in this answer, It looks like the correct construct is to make the id a string:

{
    "fields": {
        "Account": "234"
    }
}

 Can you give it a go and let me know if it works?
