Assets Object Manipulation from issue

[nickjennings_8687]

Jira Software (Data Center): 9.12.12
JSM (Data Center): 5.12.12

I am having trouble perceiving how to configure my Jira project to allow for Assets objects to be manipulated via linked Jira issues.

I have objects available in an Assets object schema. I've configured some Jira custom fields to allow those objects to be linked to a Jira issue. How would I go about utilizing the Jira issue workflow or Jira automation to allow certain attributes of the linked object to be modified from the disposition of the Jira issue?

For example, I have and object featuring an attribute for software version. The object currently lists version 1.0 and I link that object to a Jira issue to update that object to software version 2.0. How would I allow for the workflow of the Jira issue by its assignee to modify that object's software attribute to reflect 2.0 upon issue closure?

Hello @nickjennings_8687 ! This is something that many of us is looking for to be implemented by Atlassian (https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JIRAAUTOSERVER-464). Anyone visiting this question - please go to JIRAAUTOSERVER-464 and click 'vote for this issue'.  If you have any recommendations or special needs related please also include in comment of this ticket. Currently there are no handy triggers or actions implemented in A4J in Data Center in relation to asset object updates. You can use this recommendations https://support.atlassian.com/jira/kb/how-to-update-asset-object-attribute-using-automation-on-data-center/   . Alternatively you can implement external service that would be triggered by webhook or API call and perform updates expected on asset objects also using API of Jira (recommended if functional logic is bit more complex).
