Copy Assets object attribute to issue custom field via automation

[Carlos Chang]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to fetch object attribute and copy to custom field in the same issue, I'd like to use automation, is it possible?

There's a post-function that could perfectly get it done, unfortunately, this method only exist in Server/DC.

I know it's probably easier with groovy scripts, but it will not fulfill customer's expectations for now.

Kind regards,

Carlos

Hi @Carlos Chang

this can be done with Automation for Jira with the "Edit Issue" action and SmartValues

If the Object is present in a customfield of the issue, you can use the SmartValue {{issue.customfield_XXXXX.objectAttribute}} (e.g. {{issue.customfield_10500.Name}}). If the object is not present on the issue, you can use the "Lookup Object" action to get all objects specified by AQL. To access these objects' attributes, you can than use {{lookupIssues.objectAttribute}}.

Hope this helps. Feel free to let me know if you have any more questions

Greetings
Gideon
