Use case

In Jira issues can be categorized not only by issue type or project, but also by components. They can be widely used and offer useful additional information for issues. But it is also possible to merge existing components. By default, you won't notice such changes. That's When a component is deleted in Jira you can "merge" it with an existing component. By default, you will not notice such a change. This is why the following automation rule will take care of these merges.

As soon as a component from the current issue has been merged, the assignee will be notified about this change in a new comment.
