Syntax to assign issue.assignee to a custom field

[Dimby Andriamanga]

Hi all!

I create "Rédacteur" a custom field.

I want to put the issue.assignee in this custom field.

I tried:

"Rédacteur": "{{issue.assignee}}" - nothing happened

"Rédacteur": {{issue.assignee}} - error JSON...

What is the right syntax please?

Hi @Dimby Andriamanga 

Try {{assignee.accountId}}

User picker fields accepts IDs if I'm not mistaken.

Hi Alex!

Doesn't work! :(

@Dimby Andriamanga you can do the following and it will work:

@Dimby Andriamanga and on the advanced editing with JSON the proper format would be:

{
"fields": {
"customfield_10191": { "id": "{{issue.assignee}}" }
}
}

Where customfield_10191 you should replace this with your Redacteur field id.
