Placeholder for values in an Assets Custom Field

[Michael.Gaskin]

I have an automation rule that sets the Summary for issues of a given request type:

{{issue.summary}} by {{issue.reporter.displayName}} - {{customfield_12570.value}}

The placeholder {{customfield_12570.value}} worked fine with a field of type Checkbox, but now I have an Assets Custom Field there instead and getting the values is a bit more complicated. 

In the REST view, the new field appears like this: 

"customfield_12693": [
{
"workspaceId": "869e85a4-ad59-462f-8b36-6dec6f057aaf",
"id": "869e85a4-ad59-462f-8b36-6dec6f057aaf:15",
"objectId": "15"
},

I wonder if there is some way to get the object name from the objectId and use that in a placeholder.

Hi @Michael.Gaskin

Can you share a sceeenshot of the object so we can see all attributes. Normally you would target an object customfield by targeting the actual attribute like customfield_xxx.attributename but this can vary based on the attribute being as simple as a name or reference for example. A screenshot would help.

@Wouter van den Berg Here's the Attributes screen for the object in question:

Hi @Michael.Gaskin

The following should work: 

{{issue.summary}} by {{issue.reporter.displayName}} - {{customfield_12570.Name}}

Let me know if this worked and if this solved your issue please accept this answer.
