JIRA. How to add value to another field?

[Tony Montana]

Hi!

I need to copy User name to Summary. For example

Summary - "Create VM for me - <space for copy value"

Assigne - John Snow (need to copy to Summary)

How can I do it? Is it possible without SIL or Script Runner?

Hi @Tony Montana 

This can be done with automation:

• TRIGGER: Issue Assigned
• ACTION: Edit Issue (select Summary field) and copy/paste the following:

  • {{issue.summary}} {{issue.assignee.displayName}}

Hi @Mark Segall ! Thanx for the answer. Is it for Automation Plugin or Included Automation in JIRA SD? Or is it for any automation? 

[Mark Segall]

Yes the free automation plug-in provided by Atlassian

@Mark Segall Sorry. One question. And if I need copy is not  assignee, but custom field? For example: Contact Person Text Field (single line). Where can I find a list of similar values like as {{issue.assignee.displayName}} ?

@Mark Segall Ah, sorry, I Found it https://confluence.atlassian.com/automation/smart-values-993924860.html

@Mark Segall {{issue.assignee.displayName}} doesn't work, maybe 'cause it is for Cloud version :(

UPD. Sorry, it works
