Is it possible to auto select the new Assignee field on agile boards with a url variable?

[Chris]

In the new Jira Cloud agile board there is a new drop down of "Assignee" that appears next to quick filters.  This field looks to be populated with users who are part of the current board's view (if you dont have a ticket assigned you won't appear in the Assignee drop down)

Is there a way to auto select the Assignee field with a url variable, such as ?assignee=chris so each developer could have a link directly to only their issues?

To be clear I am talking about the Active sprints page https://company-name.jira.com/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=XX and there are 3 inputs [Search] [Quick filters] [Assignee] above TO DO/IN PROGRESS/DONE swimlanes

Hi Chris,

As far as I could see and find this is currently not possible. I did find a similar suggestion in the public issue tracker of Atlassian: JSWCLOUD-16337.

I suggest you vote and watch that issue to get updates about it.

Best,

Maarten
