How can I copy fields value of a linked issue ?

Olivier July 5, 2017

Hello,

Is it possible to copy a field value of a linked issue in my parent issue ?

  1. In my rule, I search a specif issue
  2. I search its issue linked by the "clone by" link
  3. I get the value in the field A of the linked issue
  4. I put the value in the filed B of the searched issue (the parent)

Regards,

Hi Olivier,

This isn't possible yet in this form.  Can you reverse he rule though?

So basically you search for the linked issue first which has the field A, then look for its linked issues using 'is cloned by' (the reverse relationship) and then edit that issue and update field B with 

{{triggerIssue.fields.field A}}

Hope this make sense.

Cheers,
  Andreas

I've also raised https://codebarrel.atlassian.net/browse/AUT-425 now to address this better in future.

Hello Andreas,

Unfortunatly, I can't reverse the rule.

Thank you to have raised the improvement.
