How can I create an automation when creating a release version?

[Jorge Bruna]

I need to add a text or description to the section “Give thus section a name”.

Hello @Jorge Bruna 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Automation includes a Trigger for Version Created. That would be the first step.

Unfortunately Automation does not include actions for editing the Description for a Version. To accomplish that you would have to use the Send Web Request action and call the REST API for modifying a Release Version.

There is a helpful article here in the community about using Send Web Request in Jira Automation to call a Jira API endpoint:

Hi @Trudy Claspill and @Jorge Bruna -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community

As Jorge mentions updating the "Give thus section a name" information, I wanted to note that is not supported by the REST API yet.  Here are the relevant suggestions to add the capability:

Kind regards,

I made a mistake. I thought the text that you were highlighting that you wanted to change was from the Description field for the Release Version, but it is not.

That section is not supported yet by the API. Here is the suggestion for adding that support.
