Set Assignee as a custom field value- User Picker

[Swarna Radha]

Hi ,

I want to set assignee based on user picker custom field but the issue is that it is assigning the issue to the reporter not the value on the custom field.

Please see code:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserManager
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10601")
ApplicationUser user = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField) as ApplicationUser
UserManager userManager =   ComponentAccessor.getUserManager();
issue.setAssignee((user))
Thanks

Hello @Swarna Radha

Try this

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10601")
ApplicationUser user = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cField) as ApplicationUser
issue.setAssignee(user)
ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().updateIssue(user, issue, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED, false)

Hi Mark,

It is the same. It is making reporter as assignee instead the value in the custom field. 

Note: when i am using the custom field on Create

It looks like something else changes assignee.

Is this postfunction? try to move it on last position.
