Automatically move issues from one column to another

[Fabio Rodrigues Oliveira]

Hello all,

I'd like to change an item's transition/status as per date, i.e. (If "Start Date-Custom Field" is = today, then move from "To-do"  to "In progress"

Tks in advance

Hi Fabio,

you can do it with Automation, something like this:

In condition you have to define the start date condition.
In action you need to choose the transition for the issue.

Hope it helps. 

Best,
Alberto

Hi Alberto,

Tks for the answer!

Question: When I set the Specific date, does it change as the day advance? i.e. Today is 2022-05-05, tomorrow will change automatically to 2022-05-06?

Hi Fabio,

No it doesn't.
For your purpose I think you should the JQL condition, in the condition options, and then use something like this: "Start date" = startOfDay()

Best,
Alberto
