Hi,

I am trying to create a Jira automation rule to move a task to In review when a merge request is created and not in Draft stage. It works, but then once we prepare another merge request for a release, the issue is move to In review status again. I would like this rule to run only if the task was not in In review status before. Is there any way to do that?

I tried {{changelog.status.statusCategory.name.from}} does not contain 'In review', but it does not work.

Best,

Kinga

Hello, Good day. You can create a condition in the same rule to check the issue status before moving the ticket to specific status. You can set the condition to status not in Review.

Hi Mohanraj,

the issue is that I am not looking for a previous status, but one of the statuses from the changelog history. After 'in review' we have a few other statuses and I need to find out if in the status history the task has ever had 'in review' set or nor. If yes, then do not move it to 'in review' again once the merge request for a release is opened.

Best,

Kinga
