JIRA Create New Issue (V2) cannot create Jira Subtasks

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

It appears that the former action method used to create Jira issues, called Create New Issue, within Power Automate has been deprecated.

It has been replaced by Jira Create New Issue (V2). However, this new action does not support the creation of SubTasks.

I opened a ticket with Support, but they say to use the Deprecated action, which is not available in the pick list of Jira actions. 

If I do not edit the Flow, the deprecated action works fine, but as soon as I try to edit the Flow, Power Automate throws an error (see screen shot): 
Field 'parent' of type 'issuelink' is not supported. More diagnostic information: x-ms-client-request-id is '8DB53260...

Hoping this is an oversight and not by design. And that it gets fixed soon. As it is, any Flow that tries to create subtasks cannot be edited or changed.

    As of this morning,  I have been able to set a sub task in my flow

     

    1) get the sub task Issue Type Id from your project as you need that in the Create Issue V2 action.  You don't need this for the item json body 

    2) in the json item body, set your parent task key..   Note I use a number of compose actions just for testing different json item requests  

     

     

    {
     "fields": {
     "description": "For a change this actually works",
     "project": {
     "key": "DAN"
     },
     "parent": {
     "key": "DAN-5"
     },

    I just heard back from Support.

    Latest is that Sub Tasks are no longer supported. 

     

    Dumbfounded why functionality would be removed.
