We control issue access through a security scheme that allows a user that doesn't normally belong to a project visibility to any specific issues they're mentioned in if their name is added to a custom "Contributors" field. I would like to create an automation that activates every time a user is mentioned in an issue when a new comment is made. Ideally it would grab that user's account ID or name, check if they don't already belong in the Contributors field, and if they don't, add them to that field. I was experimenting with some regex solutions but wasn't quite able to make it work. Would that be the way to go, or is there another way to do this sort of automation? Thanks.
