Listeners
Each listener, listens to issue events (such as issue update, issue move, issue create or issue link) and synchronizes selected field values to other issues.
Field Sync provides 3 types of listeners:
- Sub-Task Listeners: Synchronize field values between parent issues and sub issues.
- Linked Issue Listeners: Synchronize field values between Jira issues that are linked with Jira issue links.
- Epic-Story Listeners: Synchronize field values between Epics and Stories.
You can create multiple instances of each listener type with different configurations.
Epic-Story listeners are available only if Jira Software is installed on your system.
How to Configure Listeners
Once you install Field Sync, a new section called "Field Sync Admin Section" is added to Administration >> Add-ons menu. To configure Field Sync, click on "Field Sync Settings".
- To create a new listener, click New under the desired listener type.
- To View or Edit a listener's settings, click on the listener name.
- To activate/deactivate a listener, check/uncheck Active checkbox for corresponding listener.
- To delete a listener, click Delete for corresponding listener.
