The Atlassian Community can help you and your team get more value out of Atlassian products and practices.
If one task is blocked by another (i.e. dependency exists), most project management tools cause the dependent tasks to push if the blocking task changes.
For example, initially Task 2 (Start 5/5, End: 5/7) is blocked by Task 1 (Start 5/2, End 5/4)
If I then push the end date of Task 1 to 5/8, I would expect the Start date of Task 2 to automatically move to 5/9. Is there a way to do that in Jira?
Yes, but you'd need Automation to help you do this.
What's available depends on your hosting type:

Assuming you have access to standard Automation - this is how you could do it:
You can customise the rule as needed around other fields, etc.
Note: If the Issues can be in multiple Jira Projects:
Let us know if this helps, or if you need any specific help with setting up the rule!
