Custom field of the type "User Picker" does not show suggestions until user starts typing

Marcin Szymkowiak February 3, 2020

It's not a big issue - I've just got asked about it a few times already.

We've added a new custom field to our project that's of a User Picker type. Unlike the standard user pickers (like the Assignee field) it is not auto-populated after clicking it. User needs to type at least 1 character and only after that the list of users appear on the screen.

What's worse - it shows "No options" message so the users often don't even try to start typing.

 

I've already checked - users do have "Browse users and groups" permission.

 

Any ideas how to fix this or is a problem on Atlassian side?

I'm having the same issue as well - the custom user picker field says "No Options" until you type a letter. Pretty frustrating. All other standard user picker fields work correctly, so it's not a permissions or user volume issue as far as I can tell.

Absolutely no options shown for me as well. This is blocking for the flow I intend to implement.
