One Structure for different Users - using Automation with "currentUser"

Tim_cb7xae

 

 

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue with a Structure that I have set up for my team.

There is an automation in place that pre-filters the issues using the following JQL query:

(assignee = currentUser() OR reporter = currentUser()) AND status NOT IN ("Closed"," "Resolved")


When now a User use this structure, it is shoing my task, instead of his (currentUser)

However, I am unable to change the "Run As" setting. The option to set it to "User Viewing the Structure" does not appear in the settings.

Any suggestion, how to fix?

Hello @Tim 

When it comes to structure's generators, they always run from under the owner of the structure to ensure consistency. For the use-case you described, the following can be configured:

- add to the structure via generators all issues that different users need to see there. The owner of the structure should be an admin or a user who has the most access to issues.
- use a quick filter with the currentuser() function. If you save it, all users will be able to use it, and once they enable it, only issues assigned to them individually should be disaplyed.

I hope this helps. If you need further assistance with this or if you have other questions about Structure, please reach out to us directly at our support portal.
