I'm trying to create multiple issues on transition using the Bob Swift Create on Transition post-function... I have it working with a static list of users, but I want to change it to create multiple issues based on a list of users in a Project Role. According to this page (https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CSOT/pages/36307066/Substitution+variables), I should be able to use the format of role_<role name> but I can't figure out how to get the format right because the name of the role is Product Manager. I figure the complication is coming from the space in the name, but I can't find anything in the documentation to suggest what should be done for those spaces. I've tried the following combinations to no avail:
Any tips on how to make this work??

Hi @Jordan Packer ,
We are from BobSwift support team.
Yes, role_<role name> is syntactically correct but while using the substitution variable, you need to specify %role_Product Manager% in the post function. Yes, it is a valid case to provide spaces to a role name, so create the role 'Product Manager' and then use %role_Product Manager% as shown in the below post function. With this, you can create multiple issues based on the list of users in a project role.
I hope it helps!!

Of course, the one iteration I didn't try (and the most simple solution) is the one that works! I guess having the space in there just went against all my coding instincts so I never even tried it. Thanks so much for your help!
