      Issue Summary

      If an automation rule is set with the trigger "When: Page status changed," Confluence will not recognize the page status change if the status is removed and then reapplied back after publishing.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create an automation rule with the Trigger "When: Page status changed."
      2. Add an action to observe results (Add Comment or Send Email are good options)
      3. Create a new page and publish the page
      4. Edit the page and set the status from Step 1
        • The automation is logged and applies the action
      5. Edit the page and, remove the status, publish the changes
        • No change is logged
      6. Edit the page once more and set the status from Step 1
        • The automation is not logged, and no action is run 

      Expected Results

      The automation will be initiated and registered in the logs when the status change rule is met

      Actual Results

      The automation is not triggered or registered in the logs

      Workaround

      To prevent the automation from not registering the status changes, don't remove/delete the page status.

      Instead, create a page status label "No Status" or "Up to Date" to indicate that the status was resolved and use this after making page status changes.
