Jira Automation: Ticket Field Inheritance

I have a custom field titled VCP Initiative that goes across all tickets. I want to create an automation that if I create a Story that has a Parent Epic I want the VCP Initiative field to be copied over.

Example:

  1. Epic created (EX-123) with the VCP Initiative field filled in as Top5
  2. Create a story (ST-12)
  3. Fill in Parent Link with EX-123
  4. ST-12 is created and the VCP Initiative field auto-populates with Top5

Still trying to get use to the Automation area in Project Settings so help would be greatly appreciated!

You can create an automation with the configuration below :

1- Trigger : Issue created

2- Condition : Related issues condition

  • Related issues : Epic
  • Condition : Exists

3- Action : Edit issue

  • Choose field : VCP Initiative
  • Set value : Copy from parent
