Copying values from a custom field to Request Participant ?

Touqeer Anjum

Hi,

I'm trying to capture values from a custom field in the ticket and once ticket is created add those values to the Request Participant field.

For testing purpose I'm using a registered user and an unregistered user.

Found this link How to add/update/remove Request Participants using Automation for Jira | Jira | Atlassian Documentation

And I' using the below code 

{"update": {
  "Request participants": [
   {{#issue.Approvers}}{"add": {"id":"{{accountId}}"}}{{^last}},{{/}}{{/}} 
  ]
 } 
}

But am seeing the below error.

Additional fields contains invalid 'update'. You can use 'add', 'remove', 'set' or 'edit' for operations. customfield_10026

customfield_10026 is of Request Participant.

Any thoughts on what to do ?

Thank You

Hi @Touqeer Anjum , it appears that you are using the exact code block from the linked article. In that article I believe they are copying from the approvers field. I would assume that you are not using that field but you have your own custom field? If that is the case, then you should replace the approvers with your custom field I believe.
