Iterating through lookupissues but issue.created doesn't update

[Colin_Turner]

Hi all, 

The text in the image results in the value from the first term for the first listed item being repeated for every other item down the entire list. So, if the first item was created 47d ago, they will all say that, incorrectly -- but their keys and summaries are fine. If I replace that term with simply "{{created}}", it's updated per item as expected. 

Can you help get this working as intended? TY!

Here's the entire automation:

And here's the audit log:

And output:

Hi @Colin_Turner -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

This symptom is a known defect where when the diff() is used in a lookup issues iterator the first issue's data is always used: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/AUTO-334

Kind regards,
Bill

Thanks!

For the diff() you are using, please try reversing that expression:

{{#lookupIssues}}
* {{key}}: {{created.diff(now).days}}
{{/}}

I recall a different defect related to using {{now}} first in diff() calls.

Bill: it worked. I'm still polishing, but this screenshot from Slack is already running into my "stretch goals" for this Cross-Team Dependency Information Radiator automation -- thank you!

Awesome, and well done!
