JQL Automation to check if reporter is in the Request participants

james

Im trying to make an automation task that fires when a new issue is created, to find an issue that already exists that has the same summary and the reports is in the Request participants list. Is there a way to get the list of Request participants as i cant find any mention of it in the docs? I have the summary check working with the below code. Thanks

summary ~ '{{issue.summary}}

Hello @james

Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

Per your description, I understand that you want to create a rule that will do the following actions

- Triggered when an issue is created

- Verify if the issue created has the same summary of any previous issues created

AND

- Verify if the reporter of the issue is added to the request participants of the issue with the same summary

As you mentioned, the smart value  {{issue.summary}} should give you a summary of the current issue to compare. To have a list of the e-mails in the request participant field, you can use the Smart value below, as explained in this documentation:

{{#issue.request participants}} {{emailAddress}}, {{/}}

Let us know if you have any questions.
