Automation of Change for every bi-weekly Tuesday planned maintenance

[Jatin Masiwal]

Dear Team,

I would like to know regarding the following scenario which I can create through automation option in Jira

A change ticket should be created for every bi-weekly tuesday planned maintenance between 22:00-23:00

For example: A change on 11.04.2024 should be created for the date of 23.04.2024 and a change on 25.04.2024 should be created for the date of 07.05.2024 

Thanks in advance

Regards,
Jatin

Thanks for the link. It helped me atleast for schduled part and will use the following cron job

and would like to know if the same can be applied in Changed Planned Start and End Field whenever the change is created on Thursday, the Change planned Start/end date should be automatically updated with new dates.

You could try adding a Condition at the end for Advanced Condition for

{{now.dayOfWeek}}

equals

THUR

Then add action for Edit Issue and add your two fields. 

I have not tried this before so test it out. Might could do an example for today being FRI and if that works, then the THUR should work.

Hello @Jatin Masiwal 

Jira's cron does not support biweekly syntax. 

Please see below link for a work around, where you set the cron job for every tuesday still, but do advanced compare inside the rule to check if number of week is even.

Hope it helps.
