Is there a workflow post function to pull users from a group and add users to a user field?

Ian Johnsen October 16, 2018

Is there a workflow post function to pull users from a group and add users to a user field?

Group Picker (multiple groups) -> (pull usernames from group and copy usernames) -> User Picker (multiple users)

Trying to setup approvals where you hit a transition button, pulls the group and adds the people in the group for approval needed.

 

Thanks!

Hi @Ian Johnsen,

what you're trying to implement won't work out-of-the-box.

If you're not into scripting you might want to have a look at Jira Workflow Toolbox (JWT) from the Marketplace, since it provides ready-to-use parser functions like usersInGroup.

Beyond that, other workflow apps, e.g. Jira Suite Utilities (JSU) or Jira Misc Workflow Extensions (JMWE) might as well do the trick.

If you are on server, you can do it with ScriptRunner

But you will have to know code and how to write scripts in groovy
