Default value for 'Get input from users' for manual trigger in Automation for Jira

Phoebe Black July 17, 2025

Hello,

I'm setting up an automation rule in Jira that is triggered manually. When configuring the "Get input from users" option, I see that I can set a default value for the input fields.

My question is: Is it possible to use a Jira Smart Value within these default value fields to automatically pre-populate them with information from the current ticket? For example, could I use a smart value to default an input field to the ticket's summary or a custom field's value?

Thanks,

Phoebe

Hi @Phoebe Black 

No, that is not possible yet.  Here is the open suggestion to add such improvements to the user inputs for the manual trigger, and you may watch / vote for it to see progress:
