Check if all linked issues with trigger issue are resolved

[Simon Shtipelman]

Hi all,

I am trying to create an automation that will check to see if all linked issues to the trigger issue are in resolved. If yes, transition the issue to the next status in the workflow. 

My current automation is setup to check for multiple different stages in the workflow but if I need to break it up so that the automation is only for the specific step that is fine. 

I feel like there should be a jql query that will do what I want but I am not able to figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here is the automation. The trigger is a schedule for now.

Hi @Simon Shtipelman - Your rule looks ok to me, but I would change from resolution = Done to resolution != Unresolved.  I would imagine that you'd still want the issue to transition on other resolution types (e.g. "Won't Do", "Duplicate", "Declined", etc. ).  

What problems are you running into with the rule?

Hi @Mark Segall

In this instance I want to make sure the linked issues are all completed before the ticket is allowed to progress to the next status in the workflow.

I did finally figure out the query in JQL:

issuelink = {{issue.key}} and resolution is not empty

The one I had before would give me over 10k results.
