Subtasks creation recipes

What is a "Subtasks creation" recipe?

Elements Copy & Sync recipes can help you automate all kinds of repetitive tasks. In particular, if your process requires the creation of several subtasks at once, each one containing specific information from their parent issue, "Subtasks creation" recipes let you define subtasks templates that can be reused as often as needed.

With this type of recipe, you will be able to easily create up to 25 subtasks at once, each one initialized with the values you need, either static or copied from their parent issue. You will also be able synchronize fields, comments and attachments between the parent issue and its subtasks.
