Is there a way to link Jira users to an asset in a test environment?

[Kiera Chavez]

I have a testing environment set up for the Assests and Inventory plugin. The only thing that is irritating me is the inability to find a way to directly link an asset to a jira user. (i.e. Laptop #6 is in the possession on Jane Doe.)

Pretty sure at this point it's probably operator error, and probably something ridiculously easy that I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello @Kiera Chavez,

This is Deniz from Snapbytes (Assets and Inventory Plugin);

You can add an "User" type attribute to the form. And use that field to assign the asset to a user.

We also have an item in our backlog, you won't need to define a user field for each form, it will be built-in and we will introduce check-out to user and check-in feature. In a couple of months we plan to release it.  

If you need any more detail please feel free to ask here or raise a ticket from https://jira.snapbytes.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/6

Best regards

Deniz

@Moses Thomas, the free plugin indicates it works up to Jira 7.0.11. Is it safe to use it with Jira Software 7.10.1?

@Vick KheraI can't assure you  that  it will  work,  it can be not compatible or you can  experience some  strange behavior,  if you  have a test environment,  with  the same version   of your  Jira instance , test  this plug-in  first  before deploying  it to  your production  instance.

Best!
