Is there any way which can clone an issue and change the issue's status at same time

Hi, 
As title, is there any way which can do creating link issue then also do changing the issue's status at same time? For example, I created a link issue when I moved status from "In progress" to "Verify" and the new creating child issue's status is draft but I want it move to another status automatically when it created. Thank you very much!

Best Regards,

Kris

Try using the Jira Atlassian Python Module to retrieve the fields of the issue then create a new issue with the desired fields. The API is documented here.

There is also pyJira
