Smart Value code

[Gaspard DUPUIS]

Hello, 

For my project I am trying to create an automation that would just keep the first line of the description of my tickets. Therefore I would like to find a smart Value Code that could delete every other lines and keep the first one. 

I am desperately trying but I can't figure it out. 

Please feel free to ask me any question if I wasn't clear enought.

Hello @Gaspard DUPUIS 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Does the first line end with a consistent character, like a period? And is the first use of that character always going to be at the end of the first line?

If the first line will always end with a period, and there will not be another period in the line before the end of the line, then you could use something like this to get that first line:

 {{issue.description.substringbefore (".")}}

@Gaspard DUPUIS, 

I've been playing around with this, but I haven't been able to find a specific way to get just a single line from the description.

Thanks,

Kian
