Allow only reporter to assign issues via workflow properties

[Deleted user]

Hi I face a small problem with workflow properties:

I want only the reporter of an issue to be able to assign issues in the first status after creation and implemented following workflow property:

jira.permission.assign.reporter = true

AND I tried

jira.permission.modifyassignee.reporter = true

but none of the above is working. However jira.permission.assignable.reporter = true is working as expected.

In my permission scheme everyone should be able to assign issues and be assignable by default. Any ideas?

Hi @[deleted] ,

please try

• jira.permission.assign.reporter (key)
• granted (value)

Tested successfully a moment ago running Jira 8.11.1.

Cheers

Hi @Thorsten Letschert _Decadis AG_ 

it's also not working for me. Don't know whats the problem actually - maybe some conflicts with the 4 ...modifyassignee.group statements since they work perfectly.

Tried in another project and worked with granted / true and with modifyassignee.reporter = true.

Seems to be some conflict in that special project.

Thank for the feedback @[deleted] . I guess we've all been trough those 'supernatural' issues. I could only think of some interaction with other properties set. However, I'm glad it's working now.

Hi @[deleted] ,

Try using the property jira.permission.assign.reporter and value as true

[Niranjan]

@[deleted] - Does that work?

Hi @Niranjan ,

I tried this already as I said above and it doesn't work. Maybe you got something else I coul try?

[Niranjan]

Hi @[deleted] - I missed that you mentioned it already. Interestingly this is working fine for me. Where did you add the property? on the status or transition?

@Niranjan

I send you a screenshot of my status properties: All are working only the "....reporter = true" is not working. Maybe I#m missing some interferences with the other properties so that's why it is not working?

EDIT: It seems the jira.permission.assign.* is generally not working (I also tried .group = jira-administrators, .user = adminuser and no option works)

Worked in another project seems to be some conflict in that special project
