Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-  There is an option in Workflow Post Functions provided by Script runner there is an option for assign Issue (screen shot below) post selecting the option, when we go the script page we have option to choose project role. when we chose a role that is present in the project the issue is still not getting assigned.

You can't assign issues to roles, you can only assign them to individuals.  You'll need to replace XXXX with a specific user.

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

I'm using this expression in Script context "issue.setAssignee('XXXXXXXX')"

XXXX-is Role and the assignee still remains same and not changed to specified role.
