I want to ensure that a specific component is always specified for the issues I create.

Question

I am the administrator of Jira. When creating an issue, I have set the component as a required field, and I automatically assign the component lead to the assignee. When verifying the issue, I set the component for administrators, but if I accidentally set the wrong component, an email will be sent to the assignee. To prevent accidentally sending emails to the assignee, is there a way to ensure that the administrator's component is always set when I create an issue?

* Condition: reporter equals your account
* Action: Edit field component and add the required admin component.

I would remove the component as required option on creation and create an automation rule that sets the default component on creation of the issue.
