More than one asignee per task

[Emilia KASPRZYK]

Dear Community,

I would like to set two assignees per task. And I don't want to complicate the structure of the tasks, to use sub-tasks. Not necessary and not paid work in my case. 

Question: is there any possibility to assign more than one person as an assignee.

Kind regards,
Emilia

No, the assignee field is deliberately a single user, to prevent the problem that inevitably happens in that multiple assignees think someone else was dealing with it.  In real life, you absolutely need to be able to point at a single responsible human.

If you want to nominate secondary people who may have some joint responsibility, add a custom field for it - a single user picker if you only need one other person, a multi-user picker if you may have more, or even consider a group-picker to name a set of users.

Thank you, custom fields is great idea, but not for next-gen projects :(

You can create a custom field of type People in NG. This is done on the Issue Type screen.

Sure, it's obvious 😂😂😂. However, I don't need for the next 150 custom fields. 🙅
