Is there a way to to @ groups of users?

[Deleted user]

Is ther a way to @ a group of users with one @. instead of writing out each user?

An example would be.

@Team1 can you check this out.   

compared to 

@TeamMember1 @TeamMember2 @TeamMember3 @TeamMember4 @TeamMember5 can you check this out.

You could not use a string of the user display name to set the assignee. You have to set the corresponding user object (com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User) or you could use issue.assigneeId = 'userkey' (be aware that this is not the display name but the user key, which is the login name if you didn't renamed the user).

Thank you for your response. I am not able to find the userkey for the user, username does not work, mail which is used as login does not work and full name does not work to and I dont have direct access to database to verify.

How can I use the com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User?

I need some line of code like issue.assigneeId = UserManager.findIdbyUsername("Virtual QA")

Ok, here some code to give you a clue.

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserUtil

UserUtil userUtil = ComponentAccessor.getUserUtil()

// If you want a User object
User u = userUtil.getUser('username')

// If you need the key of a user (which don't change, so this could be done in the console and the key could be used in your scripts
ApplicationUser au = userUtil.getUserByName('username')
String key = au.getKey()

This works, thank you for the direction :)

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
issue.summary = ('QA: ' + issue.summary)
issue.setAssignee(ComponentAccessor.getUserUtil().getUser('qa'))
