Automation - start date approaching

[Dietra Winkfield]

Is there an automation to send an email when a start date is a week out?

Thank you for this suggestion. I think this will help, but I am not sure what to put for the JQL field if I want the trigger for sending the email to be the start date, not the due date.

To use Start date instead due date try this JQL replace due date for this: "Start date[Date]".

Also you can discover your JQL field, just click to create a new filter, select the start date field then click to switch to JQL to find the current jql for your query.

Hope this helps you
