Assign issues to users of a group round robin, skip user based on issues assigned count

Question

I am trying to create an automation that assigns the oldest issue in a queue to a group of users. I would like it to round robin assign the issue to the user group, but only if they have less than 40 issues currently assigned to them. If the next user has 40+ issues, the automation skips to the next person in line to balance out the workload. If all users have 40 tickets then it does nothing. Is this possible? Thanks for your help

Thanks for responding Dan, i did see that automation, but thats for tickets when created. Im trying to target tickets that were created already but now need to be distributed at a later time. I was hoping to use the "Scheduled trigger" to have the automation check the oldest ticket in the queue on a time interval and assign itself to the agents

There is a Library automation that probably is close to what you want.  When you get into 'Automation' there should be a 'Library' tab.  Click on that and I believe it's the 1st one, "When an issue is created automatically assign using balanced workload." See if that gets you closer to what you're looking for.
