Matching Custom field list in Jira automation

[Hofer, Johan]

Hi Community,

I'm trying to match information between 3 custom fields list

1 list is a path list "Folder" (Example: \\folder\subFolder...)

2 list is a list of path or folder responsible "Responsible" (Smith, John, etc...)

3 list combine the 2 lists with ":" separator (\\folder\subFolder:Smith, John)

User need to select list 1

Then an automation need to populate responsible (action: edit issue) based on combined list 3 to make the matching

I tried several way of smart value (conditional, text) 

Example of one of my test:

{{if(equals(issue.Responsible.substringbefore(“:”),issue.folder))issue.Responsible.substringafter(:){{/}}

I also try other way but without success. Do you know how you can do this kind of things in Jira automation?
