Interesting... I just checked a company-managed and a team-managed project, and changes to watchers no longer appear in the history. I am fairly certain this is a change in behavior. Regardless of that... I recreated your rule in a team-managed project (next-gen) and it worked for me to delete a specifically named watcher,…

Yes, I expect you can do that with ScriptRunner. I haven't used that tool for years, so I recommend checking their documentation or waiting a bit to see how others comment to this post/question.

And...If you need to process these as a batch, consider merging the inward and outward links using list and text functions, and a created variable...Then the created variable can be split into a list to drive the Advanced Branch source.

Thanks for that information, Julia. I updated my post as when I tried this, it does appear objects are available in advanced branching, and there is something special about links: the branch works with just the key but I also see nothing logged. I'm gonna try this and see if I can get it to work as I expected it is an…

Hi @yordy tarra vizcaino -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I believe your site admin can do that from the account management page. If you have trouble doing this, please ask the site admin to directly contact customer support here: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/ Best regards, Bill

Hi @Laura Wise (old account) -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Adding to what @Sreenivasaraju P suggests, I believe you need at least site admin permission to see those logs. Once you have that, please type "Project version" in the search box to only see the version/release changes. Best regards, Bill

Hi @Julia Foden The list values (links, comments, etc.) have attribute-based values, so you need to access the one you want. Please try this for the branch: {{issue.issueLinks.key}} Best regards, Bill

Hi @Manoshi Vasudevan You seem to be describing showing the count of issues which are not in a "done" status over time. Is that correct? One way to show this with Cumulative Flow Diagram (CFD) report, adjusting the timeframe, and de-selecting any "done" status values. It will no longer be a CFD, but instead will show what…

Hi @Neeta -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Yes, and...to what Jack and Mikael suggest: When you make that board spanning across the different projects, please consider treating as "read only", to show the visibility of the cyber security stories. Then the issue updates will occur with the individual teams'…

Hi @Douglas LIU -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I see in your image you created a column and there is no status mapped to it yet. Please try to drag that Review status into it and see how that helps. Best regards, Bill

I can think of two ways to accomplish your goal: * no list: Modify the regex to account for that pipe symbol (so you only get one URL), and then strip off the extraneous characters with the replaceAll function * with list, and easier: Please note in your comment how Match added a comma between the values, so it should…

Hi @Daniel Oriold Yes, and...to what @Melo describes... Please consider posting an image of your entire rule, including the trigger you are using and describe the issue you expect to trigger it, the initiative or one of the child epics. That will provide the community context to offer suggestions. Thanks! Best regards, Bill

Hi @saikarthik.chidem -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! You may do this with custom fields and automation, using Lookup Issues and Created Variable. For example, if you wanted to do this for all non-done epics the flow of your rule would be something like this: * trigger: scheduled trigger with JQL to find all epics…

Hi @Patrick Haley If you were to export that issue with the comment and look at the body, I expect you will see it includes something like this [https://jira.test.com/browse/ABC-135|https://jira.test.com/browse/ABC-135|smart-link] So the URL is in there twice and so needs to be parsed accordingly, such as using the Match…

Hi @Harpreet Singh Here are several links to documentation on automation and the automation library of examples. * https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/guides/expand-jira/automation * https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/automation-template-library#/label/all/1453 *…

Hi @Avril Pinto -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! What is the error message that shows next to that trigger? Best regards, Bill

Not yet; here is the suggestion to add that feature, which you may watch/vote for: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-17336

At this time, I believe the options are: assignee, epic, label, and issue type. https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/get-started-with-team-managed-projects/ Even the search box only highlights, as opposed to filtering the board like for company-managed projects. And components are not available yet…

Yup, that sounds correct as the parent always provides the context for the way Jira boards show sub-tasks. I believe you can only do what you ask if only sub-tasks were shown on the board using the filter, although I have not tried that...and it may not be very helpful losing the parent context.

Hi @Kashif Saleem -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Short answer: no, not with out-of-the-box JQL features Longer answer approaches/work-arounds, based upon frequency of need and costs: * One time and free: you may want to export to a spreadsheet to manually compare the issues * Often and monthly costs: consider…

Hi @Rajesh Konda If you open up the issue the rule says it changed and check the history, what does it show about the change? Best regards, Bill

Hi @Dominic Kavanagh If you navigate to the epic which moved, what does it show for its linked child issues? Best regards, Bill

Hi @Garry Weston -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Are you using a company-managed project (CMP) or a team-managed project (TMP)? Best regards, Bill

Hi @Pavithra Duraisamy There are a few free, potentially useful ways to measure lead and cycle times in Jira Cloud: * The easiest way to do this is using the built-in control chart report. Two keys for getting value from this report are: read the documentation to understand usage, and add quick filters to limit results…

Hi @Imogen Drews -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! You may want to consider asking this question in the Developer Community forums: https://community.developer.atlassian.com/ Best regards, Bill

Hi @Kamlesh Solanki -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I do not believe there is anything in out-of-the-box Jira Cloud with that level of nesting for swimlanes on a board. For a company-managed project, the closest things might be: * Swimlane on stories and use a board filter which orders by project and epic * Swimlane…

Hi @Declan corcoran -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I am having difficulty visualizing your setup...Would you please: * explain if you are using a company-managed project (CMP) or team-managed project (TMP) * post an image of your board, showing its columns and swim lanes * and if you are using CMP, please post…

Hi @Gavin For Jira Server/Data Center, the equivalent to Lookup Issues for batch processing is to use a scheduled rule with JQL and the "...process issues in bulk" option. Then you may use the {{issues}} smart value. Please look here for more information on that approach:…

Hi @[deleted] -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Drag-and-drop reordering of issues, of any type, works when the board's filter has ORDER BY Rank ASC. No other sort orders support this as drag-and-drop is impacting ranking. Best regards, Bill

Thanks! I'm on Cloud version so that explains why I do not see that symptom. I recommend watching/voting for the ticket to see any progress. Best regards, Bill
