I have a scheduled task automation that runs every quarter, with three sub-tasks in it that run smoothly. However, one sub-task needs to be delayed by one month from the time the task is created. Is there a way to change the time of generation of a specific subtask under a task?
Hi @Carl Alde,
Unfortunately, it's not possible to add a delay of one month to the create subtask action in an automation.
To solve this, you would either have to extend your existing automation with an If / Else condition to either create the first the 3 sub-tasks directly or - when the work items exist for a month, create the remaining sub-task.
Alternatively, you could create a second Automation that runs daily, weekly or monthly and contains a JQL that only finds your parent one month after creation, i.e. with a JQL query like: created $greaterThan -29d AND created $lessThan -30d
That would only return your issue when it's a month old and you could then use the Create sub-task action to create the remaining sub-task.
I hope I completely understood your requirement and this helps you fulfill it!
Greetings
Philipp
