Scheduler: automate issue creation from template
- Santa Rudzite (EXT)
Users can also automate issue creation by scheduling templates to run on a recurring basis. This feature helps reduce reliance on Jira automations and keeps processes running smoothly.
How it works
The schedule is configured individually for each template:
Open the template configuration dialog.
Go to the ‘Scheduler’ tab.
Choose the schedule that works best for your use case:
Daily: create issues every day at the selected time.
Days per week: create issues on selected weekdays.
Days per month: create issues on selected days of each month.
Advanced: — set up a custom schedule using a cron expression.
The Advanced option allows you to define a schedule using a Quartz cron expression. This is a specific type of cron format used by the Quartz Scheduler (it differs slightly from standard UNIX cron).
Example of a Quartz cron expression:
0 0 9 ? * MON-FRI
This runs the template at 9 AM, Monday through Friday.
