Hi @ThangTN8 

Welcome to the community.

I think you are running into the following issue mentioned in JSDSERVER-12219.

One of the work arounds should help you, for the time being.

@Marc - Devoteam I tried but the automation rule couldn't read that groovy file.

I put my groovy file in: C:/Users/thangtn8/Atlassian/Application Data/Jira/scripts/update_attribute_value.groovy

Is the location of the file wrong?
