I am trying to use Zapier to help with a Jira Cloud <> Asana integration. My goal is that if a Jira issue is assigned to a specific user, that Jira issue is then added to Asana as a task. However, when I create the trigger “Update issue” within Zapier, the only option I can see is to utilize a change in Status versus a change in Assignee.
How can I use an update in Jira Assignee as a trigger to create a new task in Asana/is this currently possible with Zapier? Thanks!

Hi there
Welcome to the Community! 🎉
I did some digging into this, and it seems like the “Updated Issue” trigger only allows to trigger on statuses. However, we have an existing feature request for the “Updated Issue” trigger to allow users to set up the trigger and specify fields to trigger on.
I have added you to the feature request. That does a few things:
While I don't have an ETA on when this feature might be implemented, we will notify you via email if it is!
Additionally, since the “Status” trigger isn’t a required field. You might be able to use a Filter By Zapier for the Zap to only continue if the Assignee field has been updated to a specific assignee. Here’s an example:
Also, you can use the +Or In the Filter step if there are multiple possible assignees.

Hopefully, this helps!
