The rule actor for this rule is missing some required permissions: EDIT_ISSUES

Hello,

I am exploring Automation in Jira Cloud and I have started a rule where 'All Logged in Users' IF Status equals 'Status A' Then 'Edit  issue fields' 

Basically, we have a field where the user needs to set a date when it goes into a status, currently this is achieved in the workflow where a popup appears with the date field. 

I am trying to automate this so when it goes into that status, the date is automatically changed.

I get the error 'The rule actor for this rule is missing some required permissions: EDIT_ISSUES' when trying to publish.

It is also worth noting we have 3 roles that I have put in the permissions, they're done by created custom roles and not groups. Is this the issue?

I haven't changed the workflow so I was wondering if this could be the issue?

Also for setting the date, I have put {{now.format("dd/MM/yyyy")}}

I have fixed this, I noticed in 'Rule Details' the Actor was "Automation for Jira" I changed this to my account and it worked.

Thank you! I was getting the same error when transitioning the issue! 
After changing the rule actor, it worked!
