How do i set default assignee and workflow in next-gen projects?

[Nikki Kim]

In Next-Gen projects, I have NO way of 

1. set default assignee 

- tried adding a rule to set assign when moved to To Do status in Kanban board. It only works when it is "moved to" To Do status. Not when an issue is created and "placed in" To Do status. 

2. assign a workflow to issues 

- previously, when created a project, there was auto-generated workflow for the project. I couldn't find it so I created a workflow and associated to the workflow scheme. Now, I can't find place to associate this workflow scheme to my projects. 

Next-Gen is great, but missing something should be very "default" for the users.

No. You can NOT use SQL to amend a Jira database while it is running.

It caches data, and has no way of knowing that you're doing the updates. You can irrepairably damage your installation.

You REALLY need to do the following IMMEDIATELY:

• Stop Jira
• Run the SQL to reverse your changes
• Restart Jira
• Re-index it
• Run the integrity checker

In the longer term, you need to code something that uses the API, but I'd concentrate on undoing the damage you may have done already

That should be placed in the FAQ, here. https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/JIRA+Administrators+FAQ

Yes. Somewhere near the top, in big red letters ;-)

Just to add on, releasing a version does more than just setting that value to true in the table. It also looks at unreleased issues in the release and prompts the user to move to a new release or resolve them.

It is wise to follow Nic's advise on coding something that uses the API.
