[Seyyede Reyhane Khakshoori]

Hi!
We are using Jira data center 9.2. We want to Assigning a component based on the summary keyword.
For example when write "order a box" in the summary box issue, assigning "Order" component.

Hi @Seyyede Reyhane Khakshoori 

You can use Automation to do this.

The rule below is an example using IF/ELSE statements, to create different outcomes based on different scenarios.

You can change the rule's parameters depending on your needs, this is just an example.

---

• Trigger: Issue Created
• Condition: IF Block
  • IF...
    • Condition: Issue Fields Condition
      • Field = Summary
      • Condition = contains
      • Value = Order in a box
    • Action: Edit Issue
      • Field = Components
        • Value = Box
  • ELSE-IF...
    • Condition: Issue Fields Condition
      • Field = Summary
      • Condition = contains
      • Value = Order in a crate
    • Action: Edit Issue
      • Field = Components
        • Value = Crate
  • ...etc

You can set as many IF/ELSE-IF conditions as you need.

You can also use the "Advanced Compare Condition" if you need more powerful text comparisons, which can use regex.
