Show initiator name in Jira email (Email Issue JMWE)

[Ozan Topkaya]

Hello together

During issue closing, a custom mail is sent to specific user. Since the ticket is not only closed by assignee person. I would like to have in mail exact name of user who is performing the transition. The following mail content is currently working:

Hallo zusammen 

Der IT-Security-Incident <b>${issue.getAsString("Key")}</b> mit der Bezeichnung <b>${issue.getAsString("Summary")}</b> wurde abgeschlossen.

Beste Grüsse
${issue.get("Assignee")?.displayName} (${issue.getAsString("Assignee")})

HI @Ozan Topkaya 

In JMWE you should be able to access user performing the action as currentUser

[Ozan Topkaya]

Thank you for the prompt assistance. I have overseen this function of JMWE.

Unfortunately, I can still not managed to display current user name in MailText. I have tried the following in the workflow and get those as a String back in test mails.

currentUser
currentUser.name
currentUser.displayName
currentUser.getUserProperty()

You probably forgot the ${} around the expression

Hello David

It works now with ${}.

Thank you all

[Tom Lister]

Could you try this

<%= currentUser.getDisplayName() %>
