How do I create an automation to set Due Date to be the fixed day of the week?

[Nirav Patel]

Jira Service Management:

I am trying to create an automation that sets the Due Date to be Next Thursday regardless of when ticket was submitted.

E.g; If I create a ticket between October 20-25, 2023, it should automatically set Due Date to be Thursday, Oct 26, 2023. Likewise for all other weeks.

Hi @Nirav Patel , 

Maybe you can fulfill your requirement using this Smart value: 

{{[date].withNextDayOfWeek(["day"])}}

 On this link you will find more information about it:
