Automation / In Progress Epics / Update Points

Jeff Murray_nn3zi1

Hello -

I have created an automation rule to update the Epics points when a value changes for the child (story, task, bug and spike). This works fine.

My question is for Epics already "in progress", can I write a automation rule to update those?

Thanks,

Jeff

Hello @Jeff Murray

How do you want to update the Epics that are already "in progress"?

Do you want your first rule to work for Epics that are "in progress"? If so, please show us the details of that rule so that we can determine why it would not be working for "in progress" Epics.

Hi Trudy -

This is what I built. I don't understand how the first rule would update Epics already in progress. Thanks, Jeff

Hello @Jeff Murray

The rule you wrote is intended to change Epics that are not "in progress" to "in progress" when one of their child issues changes from "to do" to "in progress. As written that rule will make no change to an Epic that is already "in progress". There is not need to make a change in that case.

From your original post:

My question is for Epics already "in progress", can I write a automation rule to update those?

What update do you want to make to the Epics that are already "in progress"? And what event should trigger that update?

Hi Trudy -

I want the current Epics in progress to show the total points of their children. It would basically be a "catch-up" of what has already started. Going forward, my rule written will handle new Epics.

Thanks, Jeff
