Smart users
Smart defaults can help you with defining users: initiator, reporter, assignee, creator. You can use the following properties as smart expressions:
[user].displayName
- returns user’s name and surname.[user].emailAddress
- returns user’s email.[user].timeZone
- returns user’s timeZone.[user].accountId
- returns user’s account ID.
Tip
The [user] placeholder can be replaced with a user, for example project.lead.displayName
, which will show the project leader’s name.
