Create a New Workflow

2. You can also add a description, which is optional.

3. Once you’ve filled in the details, click Create to proceed.

Choose the Trigger

1. In the workflow setup, select the Tickets option as your trigger.

2. For this scenario, choose Ticket is Created, as you want to trigger the workflow when a new ticket is generated.

   

Trigger Start

• You’ll have two options for how these conditions should be applied:

  • Trigger when all conditions match – the workflow will only trigger if all conditions are met.

  • Trigger when any condition matches – the workflow will trigger if any one of the conditions is met.

• You can configure multiple conditions by clicking on the Add Rule button.

Condition Configuration

Each condition involves filling out three fields:

1. Criteria: Choose the specific property of the ticket you want to filter by. You can use the following attributes:

   1. Ticket: Status, Category

   2. Recommendation: Potential Savings, Effort

   3. Resource: Name, Account, Region, Service, Tags

   4. Cost Center (Org Hierarchy): Cost Center, Category

   5. Policy: Name, Category

2. Limit: Set a comparison operator or criteria type for the selected attribute. The available options vary based on the chosen criteria.

3. Borderline: Set the specific value or list of values to compare against.

You can set multiple conditions, each with unique criteria, limits, and boundaries, depending on the ticket types you wish to target.

Once all conditions are defined, click Save Changes to finalize the trigger.

Create the Jira Issue

After setting the trigger and conditions, click Add Step.

Select Jira from the left menu and then choose Create a Jira Issue.

• Project Name: Select the project to which the issue will be assigned.

• Epic: Specify the epic under which the issue will be categorized.

• Assignee: Choose the team or individual who will be responsible for the issue.
