Question

How to assign the reporter for the Jira task in Zapier?

I’m creating a task in Jira using the Zapier Create Issue event. I want to set the reporter field, but I don’t see it in my Action section. This field is available in the Jira project settings.

Please find the relevant screenshots below.

Hi @Rasangika 

It may be that the reporter defaults to the connected Jira account being used in the Zap step.

 

Some options to explore:

See if you can set the Reporter by using the Zap action: Jira - Update Issue

 

Otherwise, you’d likely have to use the Jira API to create/update an issue to set the Reporter:

  • API Request
  • Custom Action (with the help of AI)
