After using multiple branches in Jira Automation, I want to edit an issue at the end

After using multiple branches, you edit an issue at the end
Will issues be edited after all branches are complete?

Hi @koutarou ishibashi 

Short answer: no.

Longer answer:

As you found in the documentation, branches have different behaviors than other rule features.

Branches on one-and-only-one-thing (e.g., Branch on Parent, etc.) are run inline, as if the branch did not exist.  The rule steps will occur in the order they have been written.

Branches which could be on more-than-one-thing (e.g., Branch on JQL, Linked Issues, etc.) are executed asynchronously and in parallel.  There is no guarantee when the branch will complete, up to the last step of the rule.  There is an open suggestion to add a new feature to branches to wait until completion, which you may watch/vote for to see progress: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/AUTO-32

In your question, I suspect you are asking if the action after the branches will happen after the branches, and so use their processing results.  The answer is: no.

If you need this condition, consider how to restructure your rule processing (or use multiple rules) to achieve this synchronization.

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi  @koutarou ishibashi

You cannot edit trigger issue from branches. To edit it you need to come out of branches.

[koutarou ishibashi]

If you look at the site below, it is stated that the branches will be executed in parallel.
https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-automation-branches/

Will the blue automation work after all the automation in the red frame is complete?

I didnt get much information from screenshot you shared due to different language. But the action Item you have written in Blue box will work. It is written outside of branching and it will edit triggerIssue(if it is Edit Issue Action item).

Thank you for your answer.

I'm not good at English, so I'm sorry if I'm rude
I know that the action I wrote in the blue box will work

The question is, I want to know if the action described in the blue box will be executed after all the actions in the red box have been completed.

Yeah, It will execute after branches are executed.
