When you add this post-function to a transition and trigger the transition, the add-on checks for the default member of the selected Project Role. If such member is found, it assigns the issue to the fetched user. If not, the issue is assigned to a random member of the selected Project Role. If there are multiple default members, a random member is picked and the issue is assigned to the picked useramong them.

If you want a specific user to be picked, you must either use the User Property (explained below) or use a more specific Role (one that contains only a single user)the selected Project Role can contain more than one user, you should specify how the post-function will identify the default member to use. Since JIRA does not support the notion of a default member for project roles, the Assign to role member function identifies the default member of a project role for a project by going through all the members of the project role looking for a User Property with the following two characteristics:
For backward compatibility, the following two forms are also supported:
