I've setup the following hierachy for one of our projects: 1 level: Initiative -> linked to Jira issue type INITIATIVE. 2 level: Epic -> linked to Jira issue type EPIC. 3 level: Stoy -> linked to Jira issue type STORY. 4 level: Sub-task -> linked to Jira issue type SUB-TASK.

(The workflow can also be automated, based on theAnswer accepted. As the automation for sub-task is triggered when a Task is created, it considers the Task as the issue. Hence, when we say, { {issue.parent.epic.summary}}, the automation is unable to understand as the Task has Epic as the parent. Update the automation with ' { {issue.epic.summary}} : { {issue.summary}} : Task-1'.daA97i. 259 430 298 380 299 164 394 196 201
