Set correct assigne based on value of a custom group picker field

[Calderara Serge]

Dear all,

I have an automation rule which trigger during a specific WF transition
On that WF transition I need to set the assignee to the current user who trig the automation ONLY if it belongs to the group selected from a Custom group picker field

Any idea how to do that ?

I have try smart value in a User Field condition but seems not working

Thanks for advise

regards

Hi @Calderara Serge 

You can add a user condition in your automation to compare

Base the user on the "user who triggered the event", in the check use "is in group" and in criteria, the required group.

The add an edit action and use smart value in the field Assignee: {{initiator.displayName}}

hello @Marc -Devoteam- ,

This is what I have done and when I specify the groupe name from the list it works fine.

But in my scenario, I do not know in advance the groupe name. The value of teh groupe is define with a custom group picker field like : User group

The idea is to use something like : {{issue.User goup.value}} in criteria but seems not to work

Any idea?
