1. Navigate to the project automation section of your Jira project. If you are a Jira admin, you can do this from the global automation administration page.

2. Click "Create rule."

3. Add the "Field value changed" trigger and choose "Didit metadata" for the "Fields to monitor for changes" section.

4. Add a "{{smart values}} condition" which specifies the text in the "Didit metadata" field that you would like to trigger your rule.

The text (second value) is up to you, but your "First value" and "Condition" should look something like below.

We suggest you use "contains" for the condition. If you choose "equals" the condition will look for the exact text.

5. Choose the action that you would like to automate based on the criteria in step 4. In our example we choose to assign the issue to a particular user.

Now when the training program "Compliance" is chosen, automation will assign the issue to the right user.
