      Problem description

      Currently, the A4J only allows me to link a ticket to the "trigger issue" or the "Most recently created issue".

      However, I would like to link all newly created (cloned) issues together.

      Potential Workaround

      Currently, A4J doesn't provide a way for linking all the created issues amongst them.
      They could be linked in pairs in a way that it is trackable.

      You have two options for that:

      1. Editing each “Clone issue” action you have there and setting the "Issue Links" field with the "Most recently created issue";
      2. Or adding a branch for "All created issues" and setting the "Link Issue" action with the "Most recently created issue".

      Note that the second option will link all the issues to the last cloned issue, so you might need to have that in mind.

      Alternatively, you can add a specific label on each of your cloned issues and build a second rule that is triggered whenever an issue is created with that specific label in a way that you can search for all the issues labeled with the same label and then you remove the label on the same rule, to avoid having duplicates.
