Issue smart value in Link issue action

Question

Hi there,

I have a strange effect when trying to use smart value for an issue in Link issue action.

If match returns only one issue - I get an error issue not found

If match returns 2 issues, it works as a charm.

Could you please help me with the smart value?

OK we found the reason for that. The smart value contained space before first {

Now it works fine.

Strange that Atlassian do not do trim before applying logic to smart value fields. Even stranger that logic works differently if there is one value or a couple.
