Transition subtask created in the current automation

Jessica Pfisterer June 3, 2024

I have an automation that runs when an issue is transitioned to a specific status. The automation is to create a subtask on the trigger issue, which is working, however I need to update the status of just the newly created subtask.  I cannot figure out how to transition the subtask through to a specific status and the options being shows are from the workflow of the parent (trigger) issue. Screenshot 2024-06-03 112915.png

Hello @Jessica Pfisterer 

You can use a For Branch with the "All Created Issues" option.

You can put the transition action under this for branch and it will action the transition for the subtask created.

Let me know if that works for you or if you need any other help.

Thanks I did try that before, and again after your suggestion but the state for the sub-task (not available on the parent issue) is not showing up. Any ideas?

Running across the same problem I am able to transition the trigger task but not the sub tasks following that. @Jessica Pfisterer
