Need to add Select List (cascading) custom field to automation rule

[Naresh G]

Hello all. I am trying to write an automation rule which can create an issue every Monday. Here is one of my fields in the Select List (cascading) type with Yes or NO options. I am unable to add this field to create a screen because it is not supporting for choosing. I need to write JSON to add the custom field in the more options area(Additional fields). I am new to JSON. Can anybody help to write this? Thank you.

Hey @Naresh Gantala 

Welcome to Atlassian Community !!

That's correct cascading fields wont be available in dropdown, we have to pass as JSON in advanced editing.

This worked for me as well. Before I had this and kept getting errors either "cannot deserialize instance of java.lang.string, etc. ... or JSON not valid error

{
"fields": {
"customfield_20476": {
"value": {
"parentOption": "Transferred",
}
}
}
}
