Issue/Introduction

For automation between 2 JIRA instances, In JIRA instance 1 we have the Status field which is mapped to a custom field named Custom Status in JIRA instance 2.
Jira1(Status) <> Jira2(Custom Status)
We are seeing this issue when a bug is created in instance 2, Since it is a custom field(Custom Status), it is not set with any value at the time of Bug creation. When the automation is triggered, it creates a bug in JIRA instance 1 and copies over the URL of the ticket back to JIRA instance 2.
But it is not getting the Status value back to JIRA instance 2 to Custom Status field and it stays null till a status change happens on the JIRA instance 1. 

Environment

Release : 2.11.2.x
