assign task based on checkbox selection

[Prabhashankar Rai]

I have 32 checkboxes , for start 5 checks assignee is A for next five assignee B .

I have created a automation where these requests are raised as a task with each selection as subtask . How can i now assign it based on the selection in the automation

Hi @Prabhashankar Rai 

If there are no conditions (e.g., one select = one sub-task), please try using an Advanced Branch over the selections.

When there are conditions, you could use if / else condition blocks, or try to consolidate those using Lookup Tables to map the values to the needed sub-tasks.  Certainly the assignment part would be simplified with the tables.

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi @Prabhashankar Rai 

You can achieve this by using smart values and conditional logic. For example, you can loop through the selected checkbox options and use if/else branches in your automation to assign specific assignees based on the selected items' position (e.g., first 5 → A, next 5 → B, etc.).

However, this setup can get complex and hard to maintain.

An easier and smarter way is to try the SnapAssign app – it’s free on the Marketplace and allows you to create as many assignment rules based on fields like checkbox selections. (I'm one of the folks behind the app, please let me know if you have any questions)

How to assign using this app , i checked but it has load balance and round robin method only.

Assume you have a team of users A and B. 

First rule: your JQL will check the first five checkboxes, and the assignee will be A. 

Second rule: your JQL will check the last five checkboxes, and the assignee will be B. The method (round-robin or load-based) will have no impact if there is only one assignee; however, if you wish to add C, D, and other users, it will make sense. It may assign in order.
