I need to create an Automation Rule that every day will create a NEW Task. Then, move it to the Board with the IN PROGRESS status.
So the trigger would be the Basic scheduler or the Advanced (that used CRON expression).
The problem I am finding is that it enforces to enter a JQL. As if I was searching for issues to apply the Rule on.
But I don't want to search anything, I just want to create a new issue from nowhere.
I tried to add a generic JQL that for only once was finding a single issue but now only returns 0 issues found.
And I also tried to check and un-check the box for "Only include issues that have changed since the last time this rule executed" with no success.
What am I doing wrong?
SOLVED!
In summary, the transition method I was using was wrong and was requiring the JQL to be filled.
Steps
- Create a Branch rule / related issues for Most recently created issue.
- Then inside, add a Transition issue and the status that I wanted.
- Now I could go there and uncheck the JQL and publish the rule.
See illustration:
Thank you for posting this! I have found other solutions referencing using the Branch rule, but no graphic. This is exactly what I needed.

Hi, @Davi Torres !
If you`re ok with Atlassian plug-ins, I suggest you to try out Business Process Manager add-on. We at the SaaSJet team use it to manage business procedures.
You can create a new Step (Jira issue) and fill it as you wish.
And then use a submission function to transit issues from Done to In Progress status

Hi @Davi Torres
You have checked the box "Run a JQL search and execute actions for each issue in the query".
Please unchek it and you should be able to schedule the task creation without need of a JQL query.

With the box unchecked:
If I uncheck and remove the JQL it does not allow me to save:
