Automatically move stories to the project of the epic

Matthias Welz February 6, 2020

We are using multiple projects, but have a shared board which shows all epics and stories across our projects. Our convention is that stories should only be linked to epics in the same project. Sometimes it happens that we want to move a story from one epic to another one. In some cases, the other epic might be in another project.

 

I am trying to automate this using Automation for Jira:

So far, I have the following workflow:

When: Issue Linked (any link type)

If: {{issue.project}} is not equal to {{issue.epic.project}}

Then: ???

However, I am not sure how to create the action: According to https://docs.automationforjira.com/knowledge-base/move-an-issue.html I need to clone and then delete the issue.

However, "Project" does not allow variables - i.e. I can't simply state project as "{{issue.epic.project}}".

Any idea?

Thank you!
