Hi @Tamar Ohayon-Harary -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Updating my suggestion: please try using a Rollup on your user field to count the people selected:

Kind regards,

Thank you Bill. I have tried that, unfortunately, I can't select the fields I need to count. Probably have something to do with the field type...

That is interesting; what is the type of the field?

And, if the type is not supported with custom formulas in JPD, a workaround is using a number field and setting the value with an automation rule:

  • trigger: field value changes, for your Team Members field
  • action: edit work item, setting the new number field to...
{{issue.customfield_12345.size|0}}

You will need to identify the custom field ID for your Team Members field, either using the { } at the right side of the edit field or with this how-to article.
