Component selection adds a link to Confluence

[Tanya Morgan]

Hello Everyone

I would appreciate assistance with the following: 

We currently have a Component drop down enabled when a task is created. 

What we would like to do is have a predetermined Confluence link added to the task below the component field when a component is chosen from the drop down. 

The Confluence link would differ by component.

Is this possible? And if so please explain how. 

Thank You

You would use Automation for Jira (now free with Jira cloud).  The trigger would be on the component field being updated, you would conditionally check what component was set and then update a custom field with the relevant link.  It Will take a little bit of time and research but should be achievable, you can also check back in with the community if you get stuck
