Example Flow to Link Issue to parent Case when an Issue is linked
The following example will link a Jira Issue to parent Case when its child Case links a new issue.
In Salesforce → Flows create a new Record Triggered Flow
Select the junction object “Case Issue” (a new record is created in this junction object every time an Issue is linked to a Case) and set the conditions as follows:
After that it needs to validate if Case has parent Id ({!$Record.zsfjira__CaseId__r.ParentId} is not null), so in the Asynchronous path add a Decision element:
From “Yes” outcome, add the “Link Issue v2” Flow Action
Make sure to pass the parent Case Id from trigger ({!$Record.zsfjira__CaseId__r.ParentId}) in the Record Id field and Issue key from trigger ({!$Record.zsfjira__ZIssueId__r.Name}) in the Issue Key field
Finally Save and Activate the flow. Then go to a Case that has a parent Case and link a new Issue, open parent Case and verify the same Issue is automatically linked to it.
