Add the reporter in the "approvers" field

[Michaël Monserrat]

Hello,

With Automation I would like to add the reporter in the "approvers" field.

I have tested different combinations, but I can't find the right syntax for JSON.

Thank you, in advance, for your help.

Best regards.

Hi @Michaël Monserrat,

You actually don't need to use the advanced option, you can use the smart value {{issue.Reporter}}:

Hope this helps!

Hi @Manon Soubies-Camy 

Very good news.

Reading the description of the field "Type to find matching users..." and seeing the list proposed when I clicked in the field, I didn't think it was possible to enter a value outside the list!

Thank you for your response!
