Hello,
We got a few Automation Rules set up for documenting part of our process for our Projectmanagement in Jira.
We got different issuetypes with different Field Configurations but some fields repeat themselves in the issuetypes.
Our Automation Rule gets triggered by a change in a field and then it should automatically create a new ticket, move it to the next status and also copy some content from the Trigger Ticket to the new Ticket.
The first parts work fine only the copying of the content sometimes fails and we don't know why.
If we try to copy the contents from a custom field named "Teammembers" from the Trigger Ticket to the same Field (Teammmembers) on the new ticket it always throws this error message:
Unknown fields set during create, they may be unavailable for the project/type. Check your custom field configuration. Fields ignored
The field exists for both issuetypes and for the project over all. Even if we recreate the field, the project and the automation rule in a new project the same error message is thrown. The error message only gets thrown when it tries to copy content into a field with the same name of the Trigger Ticket (which is one field in the backend).
We tried a workaround with creating the same field multiple times for this project but the Automation only recognizes multiple Fields with the same name as one Field.
It is also interesting that this rule had no problems three weeks ago when I last tested it but a few days after that (25.0) it already has thrown the error message.
I don't know if anyone has a similar problem and found a solution/workaround or if anyone knows that this might be a bug in the Automation.
Either way I would be happy to hear from everyone
