Some text + task name

[Надежда Баженова]

Hi!

Сan I use automation to do this case? Add some text to the task name if the condition is true.

For example, in the "Platform" field I set value "Android" -> the text "Android" will be added to the task name (Android task_name). 

If the condition is false, the task name remains unchanged (task_name).

Is it possible?

Hi @Надежда Баженова

Yes, you can do this with Automation.

Create an Issue Created trigger

Add in a Condition for field  Platform = Android

Add a New Action for Edit Issue

In the summary field use the text: {{issue.customfield_xxxxxxx}} {{issue.summary}}

where the xxxxx is the id of your custom Platform field. 

Or you can use{{issue.Platform}} {{issue.summary}}

Yes, I believe you can.

You need to decide what your trigger is. Can this be done one time when the issue is created, or do you also need to consider that the Platform field value could be changed later and you would need to update the Summary?

After deciding on the triggers, you would add a Condition to check the value of the Platform field.

Then you would add an Action to Edit the issue. You can use Smart Values to get the current value of the Summary field.

Thanks for the answers!

I used Smart Values and it works.
