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 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.



 Project event


Add a Trigger → Project Event → Component merged

In this case, the Component merged event will be used. When no project is specified, the trigger will listen on every project for component merges.


 Issue Component Selector

Add Selector → Issue Component Selector

 Add comment action



Next to the Issue Component Selector click on Add → Action → Add Comment


Comment's text*

Hi [~%{selector.issue.assignee}],

Cheers!
