Automation Logic

Question

Hello!

I am in need to create an automation logic for assignment in JSM where we compare values in cutom field 'vendor name' and assign tickets to different agents based on the range my business has provided me.

For example, if vendor name range is A-E, assign to Agent X, if vendor name range is F-J, assign to Agent Y, etc.,

I am trying to use smart variable but not sure how to correctly write the syntex.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

hank you for your response. {{vendor.name}} is what I am using.

Here is my scenario:

if vendor name field blank - assign to agent X

if vendor name ranges from B - F - assign to agent Y

Now, as I build the automation, it continues to assign the ticket to agent X, even if the vendor name is between B - F. Can't figure out how to set it up correctly.

Welcome to the community.  What is your smartvalue syntax that you are using for issue assignment?

Take a look at this reference link for Smart Value on Users objects - https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-users/

Take a look at this automation rule template for auto assign issue - https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/automation-template-library/auto-assign

Please advise and hope this helps, so we can assist you further.
