Basic Parameters

ParameterDescription
AssigneeThe email address or the display name of the assignee. The string can match the prefix of the attribute's value.
For example, query=john matches a user with a displayName of John Smith and a user with an emailAddress of johnson@example.com.
Therefore, it's recommended to use the user's email to prevent the string from matching multiple values, which is ambiguous and will cause the action to fail.
