Task creation rule

[Elie Sarafian]

Hey everyone!
I have a small issue while creating a rule.

What I need:

Let's say that I have an epic & I would like to trigger a rule, which then creates a task & a subtask to that task.

What I am getting:

Task is being created, but the subtask is being linked to the epic, instead of the task.

Thanks a bunch!

Issue has been resolved.

Hi Elie - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Can you share some screenshots of what you have so far?

Hey John, thanks for the answer!
I'll attach some screenshots to the thread :)

Hi Elie - Can you share how it was resolved for others seeing this post in the future? 

I assume you changed how the Epic Link was getting populated to not use the trigger issue.

Hey John, of course! 

I have prepared this trigger, the steps are as follows:
Epic Created => Task Created => Create a new subtask on the newest issue
