Edit work item fields with Jira automation

Consider the following guidance and tips when using automation to edit fields using the Clone, Edit and Transition work item actions.

ラベルの追加および削除

When setting up the Labels field, select More actions (), then Add/remove values to add or remove specific labels to and from the existing set of labels. Using this option will override the default behavior of replacing all existing labels.

複数選択フィールドに値を追加する

By default, when setting up a multi-select field, you will set the values to the field, rather than add values to any existing values. This means the result of the action will override any other values that already existed on the field. In the below example, the work item will only have one value (Step 1) in its Steps field.

To add new values to the existing values on a field, select the Copy from work item options along with any new values to add. In the below example, the work item’s Steps field will retain any values that were already there, in addition to Step 2.

Edit work items with JSON

You also have the option of editing fields using JSON input, allowing for more advanced field editing. Read more about editing fields with JSON
