Automation update subtask summary

[Pauline Hild]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to create an automation rule that changes the summary of an automatically created subtask when the summary of the parent task is changed.

The problem now is that I used a value for the names of the subtasks (e.g. {{triggerIssue.summary}} Sample QC). 

I already managed to create a rule that works for one subtask. My question now is: How do I have to set the rule that every single subtasks keeps it own name and just the {{triggerIssue.summary}} is changed? 

I would be very grateful for help!

Kind regards, 

Pauline

Hello there, Jacques,

I'm afraid that this is not really possible within JIRA intself, as there was an improvement ticket regarding this issue (https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-1330) and it was closed as "Won't Fix".

However, I think I have found a plugin that may help you acheive what you require, it's called Field Security Plugin, it allows you to set the security for JIRA fields, and even the custom fields as well. Have a look at it here:

I hope that helps :)
