I want to create an automation wherein if an email is raised stating the description, Priority, owning department, a ticket should be created in a defined EPIC,
How can I do that?
Hello @Jatin Bansal
Are you using an Email Handler to create the issue in Jira Software or Work Management project? Or is this an email that is going to a Jira Service Desk project?
Or have you not yet gotten to the point of actually creating the issue from an email?
Hii @Trudy Claspill
I have not yet gotten to the point of actually creating the issue from an email.

Do you want to create the issue into a Software, Business, or Service Management project? The configuration to create issues from emails is done one way for Software and Business (aka Work Management) projects, and another way for Service Management projects.

This documentation provides guidance on the configuration required to create issues from emails in a Jira Software project.

The process does not directly allow you to parse the content of the email into different fields in Jira. It places the email Subject into the Issue Summary, and the email content into the Issue Description. If you want to parse the content and set other issue fields or make the new issue a child of an existing Epic based on that, you would have to do that with Automation Rules or Workflow post-functions.

Hi @Trudy Claspill ,
I am thinking about implementing a similar set up so that an email triggers a Jira issue being created (using Jira Software). There would be several custom fields in the email that would need to be copied onto the Jira ticket. Do you know if this would be easy to do with Automation Rules? What would you use as the trigger? I am struggling to find any examples and would really appreciate some help before I start down this route.
Many thanks,
Eleanor
