Chrome plugin with gDocs

[Seth Mason]

With the Chrome-plugin, when highlighting text in a gDoc and then right clicking on it, the highlighted text is not added to the issue. Only the link to the gDoc is.

Hi @Michael de Marigny ,

I got this automation to add the existing JPD idea's comments into the Jira delivery when the delivery is created:

{{destinationIssue.comments}}

While this additional automation adds new JPD idea-comments to the linked Jira delivery-comments after the delivery has already been created:

{{triggerIssue.comments.last.body}}

^ This formatting will avoid adding all of the idea's comments previously added at delivery creation, and only returns the most recently added comment once the idea and delivery have been linked.

This smart value doc. may help with formatting if your use case differs.

Please note - both of these automations will only add the comment(s), and not the author, timestamp, etc. - so you may need to adjust the smart value or information in each of your automations to include these too.

And if multiple idea-comments are being copied over (through the first automation), they are added into one delivery-comment separated by a comma:

Some other posts that vary a bit, but may help / might be worth reviewing:

Jira Automation: copy comments from trigger issue, is it possible?

Hope that helps!
