Setting multi user custom field in automation rule on create issue action

Kai Becker

Hi there,

I'm currently trying to create an automation rule, that gets triggered via a webhook.

The webhook data is then parsed and provides the needed information to create an issue via the create issue automation. My problem is, that I'm not able to update a custom multi user picker field. Is there a valid smart value syntax to do this, or do I need to set it via the advanced option?

Kind regards,

Kai

Hope this gives some ideas.
