  4. Add a trigger:

    1. For this automation, we want the automation to run when a ticket transitions from “To do” to “In Progress”, and the issue is assigned.

    2. In the search bar, search for “transitioned, and select “Work item transitioned.”

  5. Add a JQL condition that calls the trigger only if the work item is assigned.
