The project settings allow you to default the assignee to unassigned or the project lead, but it is more powerful than that - see https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/managing-components-938847187.html

Hi SAI HO LUI,

You can use the workflow post functions on the "Create" transition.

More details could be found here - https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/advanced-workflow-configuration-776636620.html#Advancedworkflowconfiguration-postfunctions

Please let me know if it helped.

Thanks,

Egor
