Tired of doing double work most of the time? Repetitive tasks stress your team? No worries! From now on you can put all of your energy on work you actually have to do. JWT automation rule give you and your team the power to automate and control the most complex plans you have.

While JWT workflow post functions are a perfect way to automate actions that are directly tied to a workflow transition, automation rules allow you to automate actions within Jira regardless of any workflow

JWT automation rules contain four elements:


Triggers: A rule must start with a trigger. They define whether a rule should be executed or not and are generally based on a field, issue, project or system. Learn more about triggers.


Selectors: They provide the ability to search for specific issues within a rule and then take actions against those issues it found. Learn more about selectors.


Conditions: They provide the ability to further control processing. Learn more about conditions.


Actions: They determine the type of filed, issue, transition, comment or email processing that should take place. Learn more about actions.


Think of the trigger as "WHEN something happens". The action is the counterpart of "THEN do something".

Basic rules do not need more elements!
