Add a user to a group using smart values in automations for Jira

[JJ]

Is it possible to add a user to a group using smart values in automations for Jira? For example, someone creates a certain type of ticket in Jira Service Management and we want to give them automatic permission to a group in Jira Software.

@JJ, 

I think you could do this using a rest API request. Check out the article on extending Automation for Jira with Rest API calls.

The specific API you would need to use is https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-groups/#api-group-groups.

Thanks,

Thank you for the workaround. I guess it's not possible using automations.
