Hello @Eran Roiter 

What is the field type for the Working Team field?

If it is not a User Picker field then what information from the Assignee do you want to copy, email, account id, display name?

Thanks for your answer.

Same as Assignee just with multiple choice.

So it is a multiple user picker field?

What Type of project are you using? Get that information from the View All Projects page under the Projects menu.

When do you want this to happen? What issue event should cause this? For example, when the issue is created, when the Assignee field is changed, ...?
