We are pair programming and would like to assign both pairs to an issue. Is it possible to have multiple assignees for a story?
No. The JIra assignee is a single user, the person who is definitively the current person responsible for an issue. That's it.
If you need multiple users on an issue, then add (multi) user-picker custom fields, but bear in mind that they won't have the same functionality as the assignee field.
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
