Use case
Often you do not only use Jira's basic set of features but extend your issues with custom fields like our calculated fields.
They work perfectly to aggregate data but once in a while you might want to do a reindex to get all up-to-date values from all issues.
In this use case we will use the scheduled trigger to do a reindex the current and all linked issues as soon as the current issue is updated.
Issue updated event
Create a new rule and name it appropriately.
Providing a description will help you to identify what the rule does but this step is optional.
Add a Trigger → Issue event → Issue Updated
No further configuration needed. The automation rule is triggered every time an issue is being transitioned.
Reindex issue action
Add Action → Reindex issue
No further configuration needed.
JQL Selector
