Trigger automation when Team field is changed

I want to trigger an automation when the team field is updated. The team field is the field from Advanced Roadmaps. 

It is not in the list of fields in the "Field value changed". 

Are there any ideas on how to solve this? 

I would like NOT to have a transition where you update the team - not really sure that would help since I cannot trigger on transition in DC. 

Hit me with ideas :)

I decided to go for the solution where I do not have the Teams field in the edit screen. Instead I added transitions for editing the team.

Hi @Susanne Harelius  -

It looks like the Team field has been added to the list of 'Fields to monitor for changes'

I used the 'When value changes for' trigger and selected:

  • Fields to monitor for changes - Team
  • Change type - Any changes to the field
  • For - Create issue Edit issue

I wanted to set up an automation for a particular team, so I then added an IF: JQL condition of Team[Team] = <the relevant team id>

It's working for me when I added a Notification Then action of: Then: Send Email.

Worth trying :)  You don't need to include the IF condition

Hi @Susanne Harelius 

Currently you cannot trigger from the Team value change. There is no workaround other than implementing your own custom select list field with the team names in there.

If you go that route you could monitor that field and have it update the Team via a JSON update on the "Edit issue" action (cannot edit the field in the no-code UI either), alongside any other actions you want to use.

I suspected that. I do not want more fields, haha. Gah, there are mostly challenges with the team fields. Oh well. 

I guess I will have to go for a transition instead.

This advanced compare condition worked for me:
