How do I assign an issue TYPE to a group?

[Bar T]

Is there an easy way to assign an issue type (Customer Support Escalation) to a group (CS team)?

Looks like you can't do this via the "component" default assignee. Found some info on changing the Workflow to do this but that sounded a bit complicated for a simple change? Suggestions are appreciated.

Hi Barbara,

JIRA only supports assigning of issues to a single individual.

There are some workarounds suggested by Atlassian here, though: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/how-do-i-assign-issues-to-multiple-users-207489749.html
