Component lead vs Group?

Samir Freelance

Hello can i define component lead as a group of people instead of a single user?

when I add a new component to project

the new compnent is a single person ...can it be a group?

when creating a new issue , i am defining the defaut assignee as component leader (one user)

i want to assign it to a group or a leader with the team working with him

thanks for any help or suggestion

Samir,

As Nic says, you can't. The component lead can either be empty or be a user. (Not a group).

My suggestion is to have it set to the leader within the team you specified above, and then use a group of users to represent the team. You can then do things like set up permission and notification schemes around those groups so the team is notified of updates to that component

No. This is the same explanation as the question you asked about automatic assignees earlier at https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/876/manage-automatic-assignee .

The basic principle is that groups are collections of users, and not an individual like users are. Component leads are users and hence the same logic applies, along with the same workaround.

I will try to workaround it..and hope to mark your comment as answered

Nic .please provide me some steps in order to create the group and set the Component lead to be equal to this group
