Is for both, Jira Management and Software

[Noelí Fusco]

Hi!

I have a project in Jira Management (Premium), when an issue is transitioned to a specific state, a new issue is copied through the Jira misc workflow extension addon in another Jira Software (Standart) project, to be able to reliably carry out that transition, first from Jira management. You must complete a screen that was added to the transaction, with certain important data, one of them is the field: "Development Responsible". Well, what I need is that in the new issue that is created in Jira software, it can be copied who is the user who is making that transition, or who completes that "Development Responsible" field before transitioning, since it would be the same person who always does it. The objective is that in Jira Software the assignee who receives the incident knows who assigned it to him, so that if there is a question he knows who to direct it to.

I hope someone can help me with this.

Hi @Noelí Fusco 

I assume you are using a Create Issue(s) post function to create the issue in the Software project. On that post function, you can add, under the "Set fields of new issue" section, the field (a single user picker field) that will hold the user who transitioned the JSM issue, and then for the value of that field use this:

{{currentUser.accountId}}

Hi Noeli,

I would think you could do that with JMWE - though I don't know the exact syntax. But basically, you want to use "initiator" as the identifier of the person who carried out the transition. I know that value is available for smart values in automation rules, so hopefully, it can be used with JMWE.
