Automatically assign EPICs in Jira to Workstream Leads

When creating a Jira workspace, all the tasks are not assigned. It would be great if I could set up my workstreams during Engagement setup, with the respective leads then being assigned their tasks, so that they can distribute to their team members. I am already defining which building block is being worked on by which team, maybe this could be augmented.

    Hi Ralf, Jira does not have the concept of work stream leads. Jira does have a concept of components and assigning leads to components, which can then be used to auto-assign once the component is tagged to the epic. Alternatively, this can be achieved using Automation for Jira to auto-assign work items based on criteria. , please reach out to the Jira team.
