Copy cascading list value to another when issue has an epic
Hello,
I was wondering if there is a way to copy a cascading list value(s) field from an issue to another when the new issue has the other as Epic ?
I'm already copying custom fields values using the post-function "Read fields from linked issues or subtasks" but this doesn't seem to work with a cascading list. I believe this has to do with the fact that a cascading list has two levels, I even tried with Advanced mode to parse the text as suggested here : https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/12912778/answers/12913290?flashId=-1735728274# But it fails setting up arguments (0 & 1) after the field id.
However, it works well for a sub-tasks using this : https://bitbucket.org/fcarmario/jira-workflow-toolbox/wiki/post-functions/Copy%20Cascading%20Select%20Field
Regards, John

It will also work if you simply select the corresponding custom field as source value to be read.

Hi John,
Try using "Read fields from linked issues or subtasks" post-function with the following text to be parsed in advanced mode:
You have to replace nnnnn with the corresponding field code in your JIRA instance.
