Hi! It seems that one of my users can't use clause "assignee changed from". Autocomplete for this clause returns EMPTY result and after typing username and run search tells something like "Value *username* not exist for field assignee".

User that run query has permissions to view all projects in my Jira instance and has assign/assignable permissions in some projects.

When I put this user in 'jira-developers' group query work fine.

But group jira-developers don't have any permissions or roles in project where I need search and moreover this user is not developer.

Does the user has "Browse User" global permission? I guess the group jira-developers is used in that permission.

Exactly. I just didn't knew about global permission until that moment. Thank you Jobin.
