How to automate a task to close when linked item is moved to Done?
We have a board in Jira that centralizes the security team's vulnerabilities.
The other teams responsible for resolution have their individual boards.
The idea here is, we want to link our security tasks into development team tasks so that when the development team's tasks complete, ours also close.
Example: GYBERGV-13 has the item CYBERGV-14 linked on another board. When GYBERGV-14 is completed, CYBERGV-13 is also completed.

I have implemented a global automation that solves my problem:
When item is moved to DONE in any project
If linked items are in MY PROJECT
Close linked items
Hi Matheus, You would have to create an automation rule in the development team's project. I'll include a snippet of my automation where I keep two projects issue statuses synced to serve as a reference
Trigger: When issue transitions
Hopefully this helps, let me know if you have questions
I managed to do it in a different way, instead of placing it in each project, I performed a global automation as follows:
When an item is moved to DONE
For all associated items
- If the associated item belongs to my project.
- Close the associated item.
This way, I don't need to associate the automation to each project:
