How can I use 'Copy Value From Other Field' workflow post function for Labeles

[Naama Lev]

Hi, 

I am trying to use ' 'Copy Value From Other Field' workflow post function in a subtask workflow. So upon creation, the Labels field will be copied from the parent to the subtask.

The  'Copy Value From Other Field' workflow post function is working for me on subtasks for Assignee and description, but when I am trying to apply to 'Labels' I get an  error in the log

Can you please help my understand what is the Issue?

Thanks!

Naama

Reviving a dead thread, but when faced with this problem just now I had to move my post functions below the Create Issue Originally post function.
