Set assignee to another user in post function

[Dennis_H]

I'm brand new to Scriptrunner. I tried using the example set assignee and it's failing. I want to set the assignee of a subtask to a certain Jira user when Scriptrunner creates the subtask. How can I accomplish that?

Hey @Dennis_H

Are you on Atlassian Cloud or Server? 

Is the subtask workflow the same or different from the workflow you are creating the sub-task from? 

Hopefully I can come up with something for you with that information! :) 

Thanks

I’m using cloud

the subtask workflow is different than the main task workflow.

You could try setting up the post function in the sub-task upon the creation of the sub-task to set the assignee.
