Why is Jira automatically copying custom fields when creating a linked issue?

Anja Brkljacic

Hello,

I created a custom field called "goal" and for some reason when I set that field on an issue and then created a linked issue, the "goal" field gets copied over into the newly created linked issue. I don't have this set in Jira automation or behavior or any other script that I can think of. It copies over values of the other custom fields, as well. Does anyone have advice on how I can turn this off, since most of the time my liked issues shouldn't have the same field values as the original issue?

Thanks!

Anja
