How to assign a group to a Component ?

Amresh Madavi September 18, 2018

There is one big project. This big project has three different teams. Each team has manager lead and team member. There is one component for each team. 
Each component should hold a group and roles ?

so can we assign a group and roles to a component  ?

Hello @Amresh Madavi

Groups and roles are assigned to projects in the "User and roles" section, you can add groups in the role section. You can't assign groups and roles to component. 

Components are functional modules of the project, if you want to categorize teams in Jira then use a dedicated custom field called "team" or "Squad" like that. Don't abuse components by using it for team names.

this is how you create custom field

https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/adding-a-custom-field-938847222.html

it should be of type select list and the list should contain the name of teams and add this field on create screen.

You can also add a compoenent lead to component so that when you create a ticket and choose component then component lead becomes automatic assignee as suggested by @Mohamed Benziane

@Tarun Sapra
As Suggested by you I have created the custom field.  (type select list and the list contains the name of teams) In the create issue form I am able to select the team name. But I also want to associate the team members group to the respective team name.

Moreover my requirement is that if I select the team A from drop down list then only team A should able to see the created issue. 

Sorry In learning state, if my question is too obvious.

Hello @Amresh Madavi

You can remove the field and add the field again as a cascading select list instead of a normal select list because this way you can confgure the second dropdown list of values based on the first dropdown. 

Each time can have it's own board and board can be based on the JQL filter which uses these custom field values in their query and thus issues created for a certain team will landup in the respective boards of the team.

Hello @Amresh Madavi

You can assign a lead to a component so when a component it's selected at the issue creation the issue can be assigned to the lead component.
