Jira Cloud Create a record Module

[MariaRo6]

Has anyone used the Jira Create Record to create an Epic Feature assigned to a Capability? I have the Epic Feature creating part working, but not sure how to assigned that to a Capability.

Hi @MariaRo6, 

Thank you for your question! I personally haven't used these modules to create an epic feature assigned to a capability. However, I have a general idea of how to approach this. 

You first have to find out how capabilities are set in your Jira. Navigate to the Jira Settings → Work Items → Issue Type Hierarchy to see how capabilities relate to epics or features.

Once you have that information, you can use a Create a Record Jira module in Workfront Fusion and look for a "Parent" field (sometimes called parentId or similar). If it’s not available directly, you might need to (1) use a Search Records module to find the Capability issue first, (2) get its issue key or ID or (3) reference that in the epic creation module’s parent field.

After assigning the parent, run the scenario with a test epic and check Jira to ensure that it's properly linked under the capability.

Thank you, this was something we tried, but it seems we may have a permissions issue with Jira as we are not able to assigned to the Capability.
