Automation and REST API
Info
This feature is a part of our Advanced Plan. If you are interested, check out this version on Atlassian Marketplace.
Use templates in automation
This feature allows you to automate aspects connected to creating standard issues that usually are time-consuming. With Automation and Issue Templates Agent things like: Preparing Onboarding epic, or creation of project with prepared issues are now possible in a blink of an eye.
Check out our suggestions of use cases:
- Apply Template on existing Issue
- Create Issues with structure from Template
- Create new projects with issues
- Schedule Issue Creation
What do you need for your automation rule?
- API Token
- REST API url
- Body of request (in case you would like to create a new issue, you need to add issueTypeId on your own)
How to generate API token for automation rules?
Caution
These steps are a requirement in every use case for automation rule creation. Read them thoroughly.
- Go to Apps, select Issue Templates Agent.
- In the Templates screen, select templates you would like to use by ticking off checkboxes (visible in the first column of the table).
- Press “Use in REST API”.
- The contents of the new window will be needed for creating an Automation Rule (picture below).
- Create label for token and generate it.
Caution
Automations connected to creating new project, could only be found in global Automation page.
