Jira Automation is a valuable feature that automates communication inside and outside the teams.

This Jira feature allows you to create rules that consist of triggers, conditions, and actions.

• Triggers are events that initiate the rule, such as an issue being created, updated, or transitioned.

• Conditions specify criteria that must be met for the rule to be executed.

• Actions define what happens when a rule is triggered.
