Setting sub-task reporter to parent task current assignee

[Kwan Kit Wei]

Using this plugin, I am able to create the subtask just fine. However, it automatically sets the subtask reporter to the original reporter of the parent task. I want to set the subtask reporter to the current assignee of the parent task. Any idea? Thanks!

Hi Bhushan, Thank you very much for your effort. I've tried calling it in the sub task workflow Create Issue action, but it still does not set sub task reporter to parent issue's assignee. It remains as the parent's reporter... Thanks.

Hi Bhushan, That plugin lets me change the assignee. I want to change the reporter of a sub task. Thanks!

Kwan,

I will add the ability to change the reporter too. Will upload a new version tonight. Will let you know when it is available.

Does the user have modify reporter permission?

is it possible to update the assignee on existing sub-tasks using this plugin? Basically I am updating the assignee on the parent issue and I also want to update the assignee on the sub-tasks.
