Inputs\n\n| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |\n| ------------------------------ | ------- | ------------------------------------ | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| `assignees` | String | only if `teams` is not specified | n/a | Comma separated list of user names with optional [weights](#working-with-weighted-assignements). Issue will be assigned to those users. |\n| `teams` | String | only if `assignees` is not specified | n/a | Comma separated list of team names without the org prefix with optional [weights](#working-with-weighted-assignements). Issue will be assigned to the team members.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e**Important Requirement:** if using the `teams` input parameter, you need to use a personal access token with `read:org` scope (the default `GITHUB_TOKEN` is not enough). |\n| `numOfAssignee` | Number | false | n/a | Number of assignees that will be randomly picked from the teams or assignees. If not specified, assigns all users. |\n| `abortIfPreviousAssignees` | Boolean | false | false | Flag that aborts the action if there were assignees previously. This does not cause the action to fail. |\n| `removePreviousAssignees` | Boolean | false | false | Flag that removes assignees before assigning them (useful the issue is reasigned). |\n| `allowNoAssignees` | Boolean | false | false | Flag that prevents the action from failing when there are no assignees. |\n| `allowSelfAssign` | Boolean | false | true | Flag that allows self-assignment to the issue author.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003cbr/\u003eThis flag is ignored when working with PRs as self assigning a PR for review is forbidden by GitHub. |\n| `issueNumber` | Number | false | n/a | Allows to override the issue number. This can be useful when context is missing. |\n| `teamIsPullRequestReviewer` | Boolean | false | false | Sets team as the PR reviewer instead of a member of the team. |\n| `failsIfUsersCannotBeAssigned` | Boolean | false | false | Flag that causes the action to fail if one ore more users cannot be assigned to an issue. If not set the invalid users are simply ignored. |\n\n## Examples\n\n### Working with Issues\n\nThis example auto-assigns new issues to two users randomly chosen from `octocat`, `cat` and `dog`.\nIt won't self-assign to the issue author.\n\n```yml\nname: Issue assignment\n\non:\n issues:\n types: [opened]\n\njobs:\n auto-assign:\n runs-on: ubuntu-latest\n permissions:\n issues: write\n steps:\n - name: 'Auto-assign issue'\n uses: pozil/auto-assign-issue@v2\n with:\n assignees: octocat,cat,dog\n numOfAssignee: 2\n allowSelfAssign: false\n```\n\n### Working with PRs\n\nThis example assigns PRs to a random member of the `support` team:\n\n```yml\nname: PR assignment\n\non:\n pull_request:\n types: [opened, edited, synchronize, reopened]\n\njobs:\n auto-assign:\n runs-on: ubuntu-latest\n permissions:\n pull-requests: write\n steps:\n - name: 'Auto-assign PR'\n uses: pozil/auto-assign-issue@v2\n with:\n repo-token: ${{ secrets.MY_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN }}\n teams: support\n numOfAssignee: 1\n```\n\n### Working with weighted assignements\n\nWhen specifying `assignees` or `teams` values, you may provide weights to balance the randomness of the selection.\nThe following formats are supported:\n\n```yml\n# No weights specified (same weight for all items)\nassignees: a, b, c\n# Weights specified\nassignees: a:1, b:5, c:2\n# Some weights specified (item weight defaults to 1 when not specified)\nassignees: a, b:2, c\n```\n\nLet's look at a practical example:\n\n```yml\nassignees: octocat:4,cat\n```\n\n- `octocat` has a weight of `4`.\n- `cat` has a weight of `1` (default value).\n- `octocat` has 4 chances out of 5 to be selected.\n\n### Working with Project Cards\n\n\u003e [!WARNING]\n\u003e\n\u003e `project_card` events are only supported on legacy Project (Classic) ([see docs](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows#project_card)).\n\nThis example assigns a project card to the `triage` team when the card is moved.\nIt removes previously assigned users.\n\n```yml\nname: Project card assignment\n\non:\n project_card:\n types: [moved]\n\njobs:\n auto-assign:\n runs-on: ubuntu-latest\n permissions:\n issues: write\n steps:\n - name: 'Auto-assign card'\n uses: pozil/auto-assign-issue@v2\n with:\n repo-token: ${{ secrets.MY_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN }}\n teams: triage\n removePreviousAssignees: true\n```\n\n### Specifying a dynamic user\n\nInstead of hardcoding the user name in the workflow, you can use a repository variable:\n\n- create a GitHub repo variable named `DEFAULT_ISSUE_ASSIGNEE` with the name of the user\n- use this value `${{ vars.DEFAULT_ISSUE_ASSIGNEE }}` instead of the username in the workflow.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpozil%2Fauto-assign-issue","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpozil%2Fauto-assign-issue","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpozil%2Fauto-assign-issue/lists"}
