trigger = issue updated

condition: jql = issue key

but this one will only update the 1 specific issue key

 

or do you mean a branch rule?

Hi @Виктория 

As you are using server version, you will need to do what @Alexander Pappert suggests, by branching on JQL for the specific issue key, and then using the link action from there to link to the trigger issue.

If you were using Cloud version, you could do this by first putting the key in a created variable and then using that directly, without the branch.

Best regards,

Bill

@Alexander Pappert  no, I`m asking about action, not about condition.
action = links. how should look like smart value if I need link to cspecific issue key, fo example LK-345

@Виктория 

 

Issue field in "Link issue" action is type-able(which looks like dropdown). I think that's causing confusion. You can put exact issue key here, select appropriate option here or use smart value here like @Alexander Pappert  pointed.

Hope that helps!
