Automatically fill in organisation field based on user

[Melle van Keulen]

Hi,

If an user creates a request from the portal, it automatically assigns the right organisation to the ticket. However, if an agent creates a ticket for the user, it doesn't automatically assign it. What is the best way to autofill the organizations field based on a user when an agent creates the ticket?

I can't seem to find the right automation rule for this, any suggestions for this issue?

Regards,

It is best to use a post-function for this, set the organisation based on the reporter of the request instead of the creator.

How does that work? How does the reporter get associated to an organization. Which post Function are you using? Can you provide the details on this?

My apologies, I should've have made my answer clearer, especially since it requires Script runner,

I did it in the past using a scripted post-function with a similar code to the following :

def issueKey = issue.key
def organizations=get('/rest/servicedeskapi/organization').asObject(Map).body.values
def foundOrg;
for(def org in organizations){
String id=org.id
id=id.replaceAll("\"", "")
def users=get('/rest/servicedeskapi/organization/'+id+'/user').asObject(Map).body.values

for(def user in users){
String accID=user.accountId
if(accID==issue.fields.reporter.accountId ){
foundOrg=org
break
}
}
if(foundOrg!=null){
break
}
}
def orgid=foundOrg.id.replaceAll("\"", "") as Integer
def result = put("/rest/api/2/issue/${issueKey}").header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
.body([
fields: [
customfield_10002 : [orgid]
]
])
.asString()

customfield_10002 here being the Organizations field,

it's not the cleanest/clearest code but it does the job.

Fantastic @said kouzibry, just what I was looking for. My case is a bit different as Customers sometimes choose to set the SM request as private "Share with No One". In this case the Organization custom field will be empty. I need to update a Tempo Account field based on the Organization content. I think I can manage to tweak the script, however I do need somehow to be able to support pagination to the Organizations call  as we have more than 50 organizations. Do you know how to do that?

Much appreciated.
