Automation condition based on comment author membership

[matan.grady]

Hi,

I have an automation that runs on each comment.

If the commenter is a specific group member, it has an action.

See screenshot.

The condition is never met.

The same condition works to me in another automation that says " if issue created by membersOf(Support)" and it works.

Any idea?

Hi @matan.grady

Welcome to Atlassian community!

Instead of the 'JQL condition', you can try using 'User condition' and

• Select the value 'User who triggered the event' for 'User' field'
• Select 'is in group' for 'Check to perform' field
• Select the required group for 'Criteria' field

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Vamsi

Hi @matan.grady , 

Welcome to the Atlassian community. The JQL condition will search for issues where <field> in membersof(Support). You can try typing in the JQL and you will see the problem with <any user> in membersof(sampleGroup). You can use User condition.  .
