Dear Team

Hi @Rajesh Ramankutty ,

I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that if the issue type is "risk" then you want the card color on your board to be a specific color? If so that would be done under the board settings - card color using a JQL, e.g. type = risk. However I expect you're asking something else. I don't understand where automation fits in here. Could you explain further what you are attempting to accomplish?

Hi @Jack Brickey 

We have to Issue type called Risk

Whenever we are creating the issue in Risk Issue Type we need to link it to an Story or Task  so we while we link it to this issue type we need to change the color card of the perticular Story or Task issue type to make it more visible to the users that issue story has some risk.

Ok so you are saying if a Story has one or more issues linked to it of type risk than you want the story to have a different card color on your board. Is this correct? Assuming so here's my recommendation.

create an automation rule that will add a unique label to the Story whenever an issue of type Risk is linked to it. Something like this...

• Trigger - Issue linked
• Condition - link issue type = Risk
• Condition - at-risk label doesn't already exist 
• Action - edit issue label and add at-risk label
