Use case

When a story is approved, two sub-tasks for Development and QA will be created.


Configuration steps

Mode*

Choose Multiple issues based on a text list.

Expression

["Development","QA"]

with parsing mode set to General.

The number of list elements defines the number of issues to be created.

Issue type*

Choose Selected issue type and Sub-task as its value.

The issue type to be created is being set to Sub-task.

The issue type must be present in your system.

Parent issue*

Select current issue.

The sub-task will be created under the current issue .

Summary*

Insert the following expression:

%{seed.text} of %{issue.key}

A generic summary indicating the purpose of the sub-task.

Description

Insert the following expression:

This sub-task was automatically created because the Story and parent issue %{issue.key} has been approved.
In case doubts or concerns do not hesitate to contact [~accountid:%{system.currentUser}].

The description links to the current issue key.

The syntax used for the mention guarantees that a working user mention is added to the comment regardless of personal Atlassian account settings of the mentioned user.

Run as*

Choose which user* will be able to execute the post function. By default, it is set to the Current user.

Conditional execution

Insert the following expression using the parser mode "Logical":

%{issue.issueType} = "Story"

The sub-task will only be created if the current issue (parent) is a Story.
