How to auto assign an issue to a user for a specific issue type based on component

Narasimha Charya Vedagopuram

I need to assign a ticket to a specific user when a particular component is selected and this assignee is not a component lead or a project lead. I want this to happen only for a particular component in an issue type and for the other components for the same issue type should be auto assigned to another user.

Ex:

Issue type - CO-Task

Component = Analytics should be assigned to analytics approver user

Component != Analytics should be assigned to CO Approver user

Hello,

You would need an add-on for it. For example, you could use the Power Scripts add-on:

You could create a post function for the create transition with a code like this:

if (arrayFind(components, "your component name") > -1) {

  assignee = "assignee name";

}
