Hi!

Something that is possible with exalate is to automatic connect to a remote issue based on a custom field value representing the remote issue key, in that case, your outgoing script would look like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.exalate.api.replication.out.IEventSchedulerService
import com.exalate.api.trigger.ISyncInitiationService

def syncService = ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(ISyncInitiationService.class)

def ess = ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(IEventSchedulerService.class)
   
if(firstSync && syncType == "EXALATE"){
  def remoteIssueKey =  issue.customFields."Remote Issue"?.value
  if(remoteIssueKey){
    syncService.connect(
      issue.key, // specify the issue key you want
      remoteIssueKey, // specify the issue key you want
       connection.name, // set the relevant connection name
      ,false, true, true, false
    )
    ess.scheduleSyncEventForConnectedIssue(issueKey, connection)
  }
}else{
    replica.summary = issue.summary
    replica.description = issue.description
    replica.status = issue.status
    replica.attachments = issue.attachments
    replica.key = issue.key
    replica.workLogs = issue.workLogs
}

In this example, when the issue is exalated (this can be automated with a trigger) it will be connected with the remote issue based on a custom field named “Remote Issue”. Would this work for your case?
