Auto Assign a ticket based on value in ticket description

[Shweta Saluja]

Hi ,

We have some notification type of tickets in Jira that are auto created.

We would like to assign these tickets based on value given in Description of the ticket.

Like in description we have this tag >. Owner : Storage

So this ticket should be assigned to Storage team in Jira projects.

How shall we do that?

Also before assigning the tickets we need to remove last few lines from the description.

How we can do that?

appreciate your suggestion.

@Shweta Saluja Welcome to the Atlassian community

You can use automation to make the assignment.  You can use the condition description contains and then assign the issue to an individual.  (My example is unassigned)

@Shweta Saluja you can use an if statement in the automation to define different identifiers and make the proper assignment.

Thanks @Brant Schroeder  , Can we also edit and remove some of the Description part before cloning the issue and assigning to other project.?

That would be more difficult to do.  I do not think that there is a way to do that in automation.

Thanks @Brant Schroeder how can we templatize the owner value as we have a lot of tickets with different owner values.

And we want this automation to work for all the tickets. Thanks
