How to modify the value of a field of a linked issue with an automation rule?

When we modify the "summary" field of an issue, we want to automatically modify the "summary" field of its linked issues. In addition, we want the value of the “summary” field of these linked issues to be “TS-“ + the value of the “summary” field that we have modified from the parent issue.

Can this modification be automated with a rule? I've tried with some options and I can't get it

Hi @Eduardo García Moreno,

You can do it with the following automation:

Here is the smart value I used:

TS-{{triggerIssue.Summary}}

If your linked issues are not in the same project, make sure to update the scope to All projects or Multiple projects:

Hope this helps!

Thank´s I try it this way, I couldn´t find the option "for linked issue".

Thank you very much for the warning "make sure to update the scope to All projects or Multiple projects", I had not noticed.

"For linked issue" is a branch, here is a screenshot to help you find it:
