'Automation for Jira'

[katie.kurty]

In Jira Automation when I add a Component one of the options is 'Edit Issue'. When 'Edit Issue' is selected and select a field to set 'Automation for Jira' is an option in the dropdown. What does this field do?

That is a user account used by automation for Jira so that it can run and execute rules. All actions within Jira require a user account so that is why apps use a user account to make changes.

So the user account would be set for that field if I select 'automation for Jira'?

[Jack Brickey]

Yes if you selected that user then it’s gonna show up as the Code reviewer. Though I doubt that’s what you really want?

Nope, not what I'm looking for :/
Thank you for your help!

Do you know if there is a way I can set up an automation for two Code Reviewers? I currently have our automation set up that a code reviewer will be auto assigned when the ticket is moved into the 'First Code Reviewer' swimlane and then assigned to a second code reviewer when the ticket is moved into the 'Second Code Reviewer' swimlane. 

I'm looking to have an automation set up so two code reviewers will be assigned to the ticket for review at the same time. Is that possible?
