Structure: Error "You are about to create a generator. It will be impossible to add it to the struct

JanaW

I keep getting the following error when trying to "extend with linked issues": 'You are about to create a generator. It will be impossible to add it to the structure because of the automation installed: Cannot add generators to dynamic content. You can drag-and-drop the item to a different location." I have created JQL for the structure and then am trying to show all my "implements/Implemented By" links using the "Implements" Linking with sub issues "Implemented by".

I have created other structures and have compared the differences and can't find the reason why I keep getting this.

Any insight would be appreciated.

You have to have the top line highlighted. If you have a previous generator line highlighted instead, you will receive this error.

Thanks for following up on your own question here @JanaW! Saved me a lot of time. What a counterintuitive error message.

I did not understand "You have to have the top line highlighted" ? Can you please explain a bit more ?

Hello @Anil Kanigiri ,

David from ALM Works here.

When adding generators to a structure, they have to be added under a part of the structure that is static. Things like Folders, Issues that were Manually added to the Structure and Memos are all examples of items you can add a generator to.

The static item that everyone building a structure with Generators will have is the name of the structure. You will see this as the top row of your structure when you have Automation enabled. I have shared a screenshot of what it looks like below.

Please let me know if this helps!
