Hi @Mohamed Samy 

Yes, I am pretty sure it's possible with Automation.
You can use the link type "implements" used by JPD (or "is idea for" or any other in fact) to make a branch and then copy any field changed form the child delivery ticket to the linked idea.
Here is a quick example :

so another question, I tried this and the trigger was done, I can see that the trigger was done as:Screenshot 2023-03-07 at 3.55.08 PM.png

 

but then no value was copied to idea, so is the last step needs changes

Are you sure of the link type between issues ?
If it's not matching the condition, it's probably because Automation didn't go through the branch.

what I can see is that link is "implements"

Ok got it -> on rule details, you need to select both projects where issues are part of.

You can see below that I have the "Multiple projects" indication in the list because I've chosen both JPD and JSW projects.

And my rule works like a charm :)

I've tried to copy this as its a great idea

I've made sure it's set to "multiple projects" but I'm still getting the no action performed. Is there anything I'm missing?

Deleted user March 8, 2023

Okay, I've resolved my issue, however, it now means I need a linked issue as well as the same ticket needing to be a delivery ticket. Is there another way I can copy the description without having two links?

Hi @[deleted] 

Sorry if my screenshot is unclear but on choosing link types between issues, in fact it is one "or" an other.

You don't need two links but only one of them. Just check which type is set when you create a delivery ticket from a JPD idea.
I think it's "implements" but wasn't sure when I replied to Mohamed, that's why I chose also "is idea for"

Hi Jean, thanks for replying to me.

I'm still getting my head around some of the finer points of jira. On the jira ticket, it has "implements", but the is no visible link related to a delivery ticket on a JPD that I can see.

Hi Graham,

Yes, the link type is only visible on JSW. But my Automation rule works also mainly on the JSW project.

On JPD, I can only see JSW epics into the Delivery tab on an idea but it's not a blocker for the rule.
