Copy custom field value

[Geethanjali S J]

Hi, 

We have total 5 custom fields we need to copy that 5 custom field values to other new 5 custom fields. 

Can we do this by Automation. 

We are using jira cloud. 

Can anyone help me with this.

Hi , If any value changed in one custom field , that to be copied to other custom field ?

is this is your requirement. ? 

[KAGITHALA BABU ANVESH]

I've done this workaround.

I created 2 custom fields Custom1, custom 2.

Custom field id for "Custom1" is 10200

Custom field id for "Custom2" is 10201

My requirement is if "Custom1" is edited the same value to be displayed in "Custom2".

I Created a new automation rule as below.

1. Trigger - to check field value change

2.  New Action --> Edit issue field --> selected "Custom2"

3. choose "Copy from Current issue"

4. applied the below code to copy value from custom1 -> custom2

and saved the rule.

I changed value in custom1, the same value is copied into custom2.

adding my audit log for reference

So you can perform the same for your required 5 fields.

Thanks,
