Epic Link - Copy from Trigger Issue not working in Automation

[michelle.purcell]

Hello Community,

I wanted to reach out to see if anyone else is experience any problems recently with automations where you are creating a task or story under an epic.  Previously, I have been able to add the field to the create and input "Copy from Trigger issue".  For the past several days, it will show that the automation has run successfully, but is not linking to the Epic Link causing orphan stories/tasks.

This is occurring in previously published automation that ran without concern as of 10/16.

I know that changes are coming to remove Parent & Epic Link and move towards Parent, but automation does not have "Parent" as an option.  

Is anyone else experience this and if so, have you been able to resolve the issue?

Picture for context:

Hello,

Go to the project settings -> permissions and have a look at the Transition issues permission. I guess only Assignee is defined there.

Very good thought indeed! I actually did have two project roles set on "transition issues", however my test-user was not a member of any of the groups. So that explains it.

So thank you very much for this suggestion!
