Simultaneous changes in 2 linked issues

Mohini P May 25, 2014

HI JIRA developers,

Is it possbile to have changes recored in 2 JIRA issues simultaneously ?

I have one issue (X-121) in project "X" which duplicates another issue (Y-3422) in project "Y".

What I want is - when I update issue Y-3422, issue X-121 should automatically get updated and it should copy all comments/status/ fields from Y-3422.

Is this possible?

Regards,

Mohini

there are a few JIRA plugins out there that could provide a postfunction to your JIRA workflow that allows you to automatically transition one issue when another one is transitioned for instance. You can see more about this in these threads:

Regarding automatically adding a comment to another issue when one is commented, you may be able to do this by scripting as well. You may need perhaps register a groovy script on the issue_commented event, to run the script to comment on the other issue.
