Auto assign or unassign when a user is deactivated

[Charles Liss]

Outside of running a filter and batch updating assignments is there an easy or better way to run some automation when a user is deactivated?  Housekeeping in Jira is a pain and this is just one of those pain points as a Jira Admin I wish we could solve with automation.

Thanks for the responses but what I want to be able to do is re-assign and change the status of work when people leave the company automatically.   I don't want to pay for a 3rd party tool and if that is my only option I'll just write a python script to do what I need and file an improvement.

Hi @Charles Liss ,

I think you can use one of these apps. which makes it easier to manage inactive users.

• Apps for managing Inactive users.

Ugh thanks but I was hoping to be able to do this without paid tools.

That isn't exactly what I am trying to do.

@Charles Liss  yes we had some customers requesting this so there was request opened for the same. I will go ahead and internally add this thread to the bug so that development team might consider this for upcoming releases.
