Scripted post function to assign JIRA issue to a reporter

[Niranjan]

Hi All,

We have a requirement where we would need to assign issues to the reporter, if the reporter belongs only to one specific role. Could someone help with the scripted post function for the same. 

Assume, if the reporter is a 'Tester' then the issue needs to be assigned to him. If he has any other different role, then the assignment should not work. 

Regards

Hello @Niranjan

You can use ScriptRunner to achieve this goal and scripted postfunction like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager

def projectRoleManager = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(ProjectRoleManager.class)
if (projectRoleManager.getProjectRoles(issue.getReporter(), issue.getProjectObject()).any {it.name = "Testers"}){
    issue.setAssignee(issue.getReporter())
}

Hi @Mark Markov ,

 Thanks for your response. The script throws an error

 Cannot set read-only property: name

Any thoughts? Thanks

Try this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager

def projectRoleManager = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(ProjectRoleManager.class)
if (projectRoleManager.getProjectRoles(issue.getReporter(), issue.getProjectObject()).any {it.name == "Testers"}){
    issue.setAssignee(issue.getReporter())
}

Hello,

You can use the Power Scripts add-on to accomplish this task. 

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/43318/power-scripts-jira-script-automation

There is a 30 days trial period for the plugin.

Your post function would look like this:

if (isUserInRole(currentUser(), project, "Testers"))
  assignee = reporter;
