Hello
I would like to create a sort of an conditional that would only allow the Epic parent ticket to be closed, if at least x amount of child issues were created.
So basically in this case an check of the amount of child issues created.
Best Regards
Tiago A.
Not natively. There might be an App which can help with this - see the Marketplace - but I also found a workaround using a custom field, an automation rule, and a workflow condition.
This workaround will:
---
Custom Field:
---
Automation Rule:
This rule populates the field automatically, based on the number of child issues.
You do need to use "Multiple Issue Events" as the trigger, as Epic Link is not available in the trigger "Field Value Changed" - so it will trigger a lot. But the "Advanced Compare Condition" stops unnecessary actions taking place.
You might also need to run this rule once using a "Scheduled" trigger (which you can run manually once published), to populate the existing Epics with the field data.
---
Workflow Condition:
Finally, we need to set a condition which is based on the "Epic Child Count" field.
---
Notes:

Let us know if this works!
