Jira Start date automation

[Sohail Alam]

I want to create a start date rule: When the summary has Test in it, it automatically sets the start date to whenever the ticket was created. I have this following automation rule, which is not working.

Help is highly appreciated.

Hi @Sohail Alam 

For a question like this, please also include an image of the audit log details showing the rule execution, and images of the actions / conditions, etc.  Those will provide context for the community to offer suggestions.

Until we see those...

From your rule image, the condition appears incorrect.

You could test if the Summary contains "Test-" or you could use a smart value condition on the expression you have noted to test with the function startsWith()

Kind regards,
Bill
