Creating Sub-tasks with Assignee from Multi-User Field

[Rob B]

Is it possible to create multiple subtasks on a transition using a multi-user list while assigning each user to different subtasks?

JWT gave me the answer - https://apps.decadis.net/display/JWT/Create+a+sub-task+for+each+user+selected+in+a+Multi-User+Picker

Or: https://apps.decadis.net/display/JWTSDC/Create+a+sub-task+for+every+user+in+a+field+and+assign+them in case you are working on a newer version of JWT ;-)

We also have a Cloud version of this use case for Jira Cloud users! - https://apps.decadis.net/display/JWTCLOUD/Create+a+sub-task+for+each+user+selected+in+a+User+Picker+field

There's a script which covers the basics of creating a sub-task here: https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/create-a-sub-task-and-link-to-parent-issue-in-jira

You can wrap the bit that does the sub-task create into an iterator that loops over all the people in your multi-user list.
