hello,
i found a way to create label with comma separated list

for example: myWert = "Liste 1,Liste 2,Liste 3"

in the branch split this string to
Liste 1
Liste 2
Liste 3

component create variable: myLabel
in next Step eleminate " " and put the text befor "Liste 1"

bereich_{{myLabelTmp.trim().replace(" ", "_")}}

and in last component add label
{{myLabel}}

this is all.

Hi @Bernd Winger ,

I know there's this bug related to automation: AUTO-328: Automation Error: The label 'JIRA AUTOMATION' can't contain spaces. (customfield_xxxx)) 

As stated in the cause:

• When adding/setting the labels field on an issue through automation, it currently assumes that a smart value will resolve to a single value.
• If you are trying to add multiple labels through automation by assigning values to a label field through a variable, It will resolve the multiple labels into a single value. It is considering the "space" in between the labels and making it a single value and you will end up with the error "The label X can't contain spaces" in the automation audit log.

Not sure if this is strictly related to what you're experiencing (based on the trace ID you've shared), but it's something to keep in mind.
Regarding that support ID, you could share it with the official support team to maybe take a look 👀

Cheers,
Tobi

Hi @Bernd Winger 

Which action are you using as in Automation there is no create label action and there is not API endpoint to create labels.

Also labels can only exist if used or added to a page.
