Edit Issue on Version Creation

[Iiro Alhonen]

Hi!

I'm trying to automate my workflow and with that, when a new version is created (I have this coming automatically from GitHub workflow) I want all the issues on a specific column to be tagged with the fix version and moved to the next column.

Is there any way of achieving this? Currently I'm only getting an error:

Error

• The rule has been configured with components that require issues to be provided by the trigger. To run these components you must add a branch for this version or JQL. The following components require issues: JQL condition, Transition issue, Edit issue

Hi Iiro - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Can yo share the full automation rule that you have? But basically, you need to add a Branch as it says (you can use a Branch based on JQL), then include the JQL you want to identify the issues, and then add an action under the branch to update the Fix Version field with the trigger issue version value. 

Then add another action to Transition issue to the status you want it to go to.

I also tried the same with conditional statements instead of the lookup issues. So moving the lookup issues as a condition for a branch and then running everything in the branch should work nicely? Trying that now.

Cheers. Worked like a charm. Here's the working outline for anyone interested:

Great! Glad that is working.
