How to sync Jira Reviewer and Gitlab Reviewer

[Stephan Vietz]

In the DEVELOPMENT section of the project, under CODE, you will see a list of merge requests that are synchronised with GitLab. In the list, you can see the assigned GitLab reviewer next to each MR. I would also like to see this information on the Scrum Board on each ticket card.

The question is, how can I sync the Jira reviewer field from each ticket with the GitLab reviewers of the linked MR?

Hi @Stephan Vietz 

Welcome to community

If the data is being populated from gitlab you would want to get a webhook from gitlab: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/integrations/webhooks.html

And then you can use automation for Jira

The input for the automation rule would be set for trigger: when an incoming webhook is triggered

For issue types (select the types, or leave blank for all) as the condition

action: change the reviewer field to (this is where formatting would be based on your instance setup)

Best,

Clark
