Make assignee field readable on workflow transition

Hello All,

How to make the assignee field readable on a particular workflow transition.

Thanks in advance,

you can't do it out of the box. It would need to be on the transition screen, but just placing it there would allow it to be edited. The only thing I can think of is you would need some kind of scripting invoked during the transition. I don't use scripting so I can't help there

I don't understand the reason for displaying it if it can't be updated. The user is already in the issue and can see it there before the transition.

Hi @Joe Pitt -

Thanks for the reply.

My requirement is to make assinee field readable on Closed transition so that users will not update the Assignee on Closed status.

I have added below Property on closed transition but it is not working

jira.permission.assign.denied.group=jira-user

Never mind. It worked once i placed the property on the Closed status.
