Use case
Often creating repetitive issues is daily work, e.g. in a software development release process. It might be that for every new feature specific tasks have to be done in order to successfully release a new software version containing this feature, be it updating the product documentation, the marketplace presence or sending a newsletter to all customers.
To avoid creating these issues always manually, the following automation rule can easily manage this by creating the issues automatically.
Issue Created event
Providing a description will help you to identify what the rule does but this step is optional.
Add a Trigger → Issue Event → Issue Created
Boolean condition
Add the Boolean condition and enter the following Parser Expression*
%{trigger.issue.project.key} in ["key1", "key2", "key3"] and %{trigger.issue.issueType} = "New Feature"
key1

and key3
with your project keys.
