Add Checklist Items on Issue Transition
Add your custom Checklist every time the Issue is transitioned ⚡️
☝🏼IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the upcoming transition to the Forge app, any automation relying on issue properties will need to be updated to use custom fields instead. Please review your automation rules and adjust them accordingly to ensure continued functionality.
