How to set a single user picker cf via nunjucks?

Hans-Hermann Hunfeld_1mjzxt

We set some CFs via JMWE post actions, in general it´s working fine. But for a single user picker CF we got some problems, although logs do not contain anything.

From a functional perspective we want to check the reporter, and based on this value we want to set the field "Supervisor" with another user.

{% set reporter = issue.fields.reporter.name %}
{% set supervisor = issue.fields.Supervisor.name %}
   
        {% if reporter == hhunfeld %}
            {% set supervisor = mkallage %}
		{% elif reporter == mfichtner %}
			{% set supervisor = mkallage %}	
		{% elif reporter == bbruese %}
			{% set supervisor = hhunfeld %}
		{% elif reporter == dnienaber %}
			{% set supervisor = hhunfeld %}
		{% elif reporter == upaucker %}
			{% set supervisor = hhunfeld %}
  
		{% else %}
			{% set supervisor = mkallage %}
        {%endif%}

Tried also with issue.fields.Supervisor.displayName, but also no success. What is wrong here, i´m no coder so it would be great if anybody can jump in and help me a bit...

Many thanks,

Hi Hans-Hermann,

you need to enclose string constants in double quotes (e.g. "hhunfeld") in your "if" and "set" statements. You also need to eventually print a value out. Try:

{% set reporter = issue.fields.reporter.name %}

        {% if reporter == "hhunfeld" %}
            {% set supervisor = "mkallage" %}
        {% elif reporter == "mfichtner" %}
            {% set supervisor = "mkallage" %}
        {% elif reporter == "bbruese" %}
            {% set supervisor = "hhunfeld" %}
        {% elif reporter == "dnienaber" %}
            {% set supervisor = "hhunfeld" %}
        {% elif reporter == "upaucker" %}
            {% set supervisor = "hhunfeld" %}
        {% else %}
            {% set supervisor = "mkallage" %}
        {%endif%}
{{ supervisor }}

Note that there is also a shorter way:

{% set reporter = issue.fields.reporter.name %}

        {% if reporter == "hhunfeld" %}
            mkallage
        {% elif reporter == "mfichtner" %}
            mkallage
        {% elif reporter == "bbruese" %}
            hhunfeld
        {% elif reporter == "dnienaber" %}
            hhunfeld
        {% elif reporter == "upaucker" %}
            hhunfeld
        {% else %}
            mkallage
        {% endif %}
