    Description

      Suggested Solution:

      It would be beneficial to improve the user experience when attempting to save/publish invalid automation rules. Currently, the only feedback given to the user on the front end is a red exclamation mark and the inability to save/publish.

      Why is this important:

      To improve user experience.

      Workaround:

      None.

      Replication Steps:

      Create an invalid automation rule and attempt to save/publish.

      Example of invalid automation:
      Trigger - Scheduled
      Action - Edit Issue field

      As the scheduled trigger does not relate to any issues the action does not receive a list of issues to edit and fails to save/publish.

      A branch rule is required with JQL to link the required issues to the required action.
