titleUse Case
For example when In Progress transition is executed, issues need to be created for selected values of Custom field. When Custom field is updated with additional new value and In Progress transition is executed again, an issue needs to be created for only the newly added value of Custom field. No duplicate issue should be created for previously selected values of custom field.

Step-by-step guide:

  1. Log into Jira as a Jira Administrator and click  > Issues  > Projects
  2. Navigate to the intended project and click on Project Settings > Click on intended Workflow
  3. Click on target transition and add "Create Issue"  post function. 
  4. Click on Conditions and Configurations.
  5. Add below JQL query and that should return issues that are linked to original issue with custom field value A.

...

      10. Publish the workflow before executing the transition. You will be able to see that issues will be created for only newly selected value of custom field during repetitive transitions.
