Copy Parent Field Values to Child When Selecting Parent in Parent Link in Jira dc

[Digvijay Singh Gehlot]

Hi Community, 

I want to copy the field values of Parent on Child Create screen when user selects a Parent in Parent Link field present on Child. 

For example, there is a PARNT-1000

user clicks on Create button and opens the Child Create screen. 

When selecting PARNT-1000 in Parent Link field, the Child fields automatically populate the same values as present in PARNT-1000 

Please guide if it can be possible via Jira automation and share which trigger/conditions/actions would be required to create such rule. 

Or if it is possible by scriptrunner behavior, please share any sample code to achieve the requirements. 

Please note: I am using Advanced Roadmap hierarchy and Parent is Initiative and Child is Portfolio Epic. 

Thanks

Hi @Ram Kumar Aravindakshan _Adaptavist_ 

As per the above description, can you help me on how we can copy the value of a custom field (present on Parent) to Child custom field, by field value change of "Parent Link" present on Child issue?

For example. custom field "Radio Field" is present on both Parent and Child.

In Child Create screen, when PARNT-1000 is selected in Parent Link, the Parent value of Radio Field should get copied to Child automatically. 

Please guide how we can achieve this using scriptrunner behavior, any sample code for reference, would be a great help for learning.

Thanks
