How do I resolve the automation user error after the automation user is removed from the project?

[aosler]

I can't change the user away from the removed user.

I figure I should be able to add myself as the automation user since these are my group memberships:

administrators

jira-administrators

jira-servicemanagement-users

site-admins

did you "Delete" the user or just deactivate? if you deleted :-(. If you deactivated then reactivate, login as user and change it. Otherwise try copying the automation and seeing if you can set the user on it.
