Jira automation check customer exist or not. If not create new customer to be issue reporter

Urmo

I'm trying to create automation what check is e-mail sender exist in jira as customer or not.

into jira service management come in e-mail where in description is end user name and e-mail address. i extract from e-mail Reporter e-mail address to customfield.

Now i like to check with jira automation is this e-mail reporter allready in JSM or not. To create new it is simple with automation.

but how i should write If matches when i need to check that customer.x@mail.com is allready in customers or not. if exist, then don't create new but if don't create new customer and set it as Reporter.

It looks like you are using 'legacy' automation but, as you are on server, that is all you have unless you have installed an automation add-on. I can't recall if this option exists in the 'legacy' automation or not but what I have used in cloud which has Automation for Jira is to insert a JQL condition to check for issues where reporter = customer.x. Can you see if that is possible? If in face you are using A4J then you can certainly do this.

I use Automation on DC. This is taken from Automation not Legacy automation.

Idea is this. User write problem on random website form. From there it is sended to JSM as support e-mail with Summary and Description field. In Description field is customer name, e-mail and problem explanation. From there i take out customer e-mail and extract it to another custom field.

But how i can write automation what check over is this e-mail allready in customers list or not. If it is then just add e-mail to Reporter field but if not then Add new Service managent customer from customfield e-mail.

I was testing one or another way but did not find solution.

This error is when it try's to create new customer with e-mail what allready is in system.

so i understand that i have to compare new with allready in system customers email.

you mentioned the following...

From there i take out customer e-mail and extract it to another custom field.

now, are you trying to check a new incoming request for the existence of the email in the description against that custom field or are you trying to see if the email is associated with an existing customer?

either way, you should be able to use a JQL condition as I mentioned before. You just need to use JQL to see if the results equate to no issues returned or not. Here is an article I previously wrote that explains the concept. While the purpose of the article is different I think the underlying concepts will apply.

please do pardon me if I am still missing your point here.

Yes, i try to use if else to check is customer e-mail allready in JSM customer list or not. If not then add and if it is, then take e-mail from custom field and add it into Reporter field.

Still i have not figure out how to build this up or is it possible with Automation Jira.
