Create and configure Jira automation rules



CREATE AND EDIT JIRA AUTOMATION RULES

Rules allow you to automate actions within your system based on criteria that
you set. Automation rules are made up of three parts: triggers that kick off the
rule, conditions that refine the rule, and actions that perform tasks in your
site.

To create a new rule:

 1.  From your service project, select Project settings > Automation.
     
     * In a team-managed service project, select Service project settings
       > Automation.

 2.  Select Create rule in the top-right corner.

 3.  Select a trigger for the rule.

 4.  Configure the trigger settings and select Save.

 5.  If you want to set conditions, actions, or branches on the rule, select New
     component.

 6.  Select whether you want to add a New branch, New action, or New condition.

 7.  Configure the settings for your branch, action, or condition.

 8.  Select Save.

 9.  Repeat steps 6–8 as needed to configure your rule.

 10. Give your rule a name, then select Turn it on.

Once your rule is created, you can edit its details at any time from the rule
details.


CONFIGURE YOUR NEW RULE

Your rule configuration will be displayed in the rule-chain. You can add new
components anywhere along the rule-chain. You can also drag and drop existing
components to rearrange the order and logic of your rule.

When viewing the details of a rule, you can edit its main properties, such as
its name, the projects it applies to and whether or not it is enabled.


EDIT THE DETAILS OF A RULE

 1. On the rule listing, select the name of the rule you want to edit.

 2. Edit the rules of the detail as needed. The following properties are
    available to edit:
    
    * The Name and Description.
    
    * The Scope of the rule. This will determine the projects the rule will run
      across and can only be edited from the global administration settings.
      Your rule can run across:
      
      * a Single project
      
      * a selection of Multiple projects
      
      * all projects in your Jira instance
      
      * all projects of a specified project type, e.g. all Software projects
    
    * Whether or not to Allow rule trigger.
    
    * Allow rule trigger to specify whether or not actions in a rule can trigger
      other rules. By default, to avoid rule execution loops, automation actions
      in a rule will not trigger other rules.
    
    * Notify on error to specify the notifications the rule owner will receive
      if the rule fails.
    
    * The Owner of the rule.

 3. Select Save to apply your changes.
