Is there a way to set a default assignee for newly cerated issues? All new issues are set to Unassigned
. This way no notifications about this issue are sent out unless people set their notification levels to watching
. And notification settings can only be set for entire groups or projects you are explicitly set as member.
Choose the Issue Type = Story and fill in the other details. (Leave the Assignee field to Automatic), then click the Create button.
The default Assignee decision tree is as follows: Assignee is selected, assign to that user. Assignee is not selected, look at Component Field. If Component is selected, and that Component has a Component Lead and is set for Component Lead assignee, the issue is assigned to the Component Lead.
You can either define the Jira assignee as the person who has the responsibility to resolve the issue, or the person who needs to take the next action.
I have finally found a solution for this myself. It's possible to implement default assignees using templates and quick actions:
Simply put /assign @username
into the templates. This way you can even define multiple default assignees for different kinds of issues.
