Any workaround to setup different default assignees for the specific component in different releases

[lingyun_yao]

In one Jira project, we'll have several ongoing releases. And for the specific component, we'll have mutiple developers mapping to that component. So I wonder whether I can configure different default assignees for the specific component in different releases. Appreciate your support!

i.e. I have one component as "Login", and there're two ongoing releases: release A and release B.

Whether I can:

configure Tom as default assignee to "Login" for release A;

configure Jerry as default assignee to "Login" for release B.

Hi @lingyun_yao ,

You may try to achieve this with some automation rules.

Here is some sample scenario based on your description:

Thx! Magdalena

Since I'll have multiple ongoing releases, so the first condition should be dropped. 

I understand your automation script, which should have Jira super administrator, otherwise we can't achieve this. 

Since we'll have multiple ongoing releases(~5) and multiple (~10), which might be a couple of dynamic scripts. 

Do you have any recommendations if I only have Jira project administrator? Thanks!

Hi @lingyun_yao , 

As a project administrator you should be able to go to Project settings -> Automation and try to create a rule for that particular project only.

What's the Jira version you're referring to? 

Looks Jira v8.13.11 not support it so far.

Sorry, I Thought you are in cloud version.

For the server permissions, probably you should contact your Jira Admins as they should enable this option. Here is the doc I found about it.

Thx! will check with our Jira admin to grant the access. 

Let me make it as accepted solution.
