Hi!

That's correct, Automation for Jira does provide the ability to assign using a balanced workload.  Automation for Jira is built-in for Jira Cloud, and a plugin in Jira Server ( however, still maintained by Atlassian).

Cheers,

Hi,

I've not used the plugin personally - but Jira (cloud at least) offers this for the IT service management side as a "built-in" recommended automation rule. So, as an issue is raised, it has JQL that auto assigns on balanced workload which sounds like what you're after?

You can either use the built-in as is, or add conditions for various/specific projects. You may find this is something you can use?

The functionality is not in built in JIRA and cannot be achieved without plugins. For cloud, there is an open feature request https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSDCLOUD-4994 . Please vote there.

If you are ok to do this with plugins, please check out the question https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/automatic-issue-assign-by-workload/qaq-p/760135
