Am I assigning the users in the right way?

Shagufta Gurmuk

I am using the following code to assign user in a postfunction depending on a condition:

 

 

for(Issue subtask: issue.getSubTaskObjects()){

    mutableIssue = issueManager.getIssueObject(subtask.getId())

if(mutableIssue.summary=='SomeSummary'){

    ApplicationUser usera=userManager.getUserByName("SomePerson")

mutableIssue.setAssignee(usera);

issueManager.updateIssue(user, mutableIssue, com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption.DO_NOT_DISPATCH, false);
    } 

 

 

After creation, it is assigned to SomePerson. I also have a Kanban board which has a filter of displaying the issues which are only assigned to SomePerson. This issue doesn't show up there. When I go to the issue and manually assign it to some other user and then back to this user (SomePerson), this issue shows up on the kanban board. So I am assuming this is due to some error in assigning the issue programmatically. What is the problem here?

Dear @Shagufta Gurmukhdas, try this code:

for(Issue subtask: issue.getSubTaskObjects()) {
    mutableIssue = issueManager.getIssueObject(subtask.getId())
    if (mutableIssue.summary == 'SomeSummary') {
        ApplicationUser usera = userManager.getUserByName("SomePerson")
        mutableIssue.setAssignee(usera.directoryUser);
        issueManager.updateIssue(user, mutableIssue, com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption.DO_NOT_DISPATCH, false);
    }
}
