Question raised:
I am trying to link the Assignee field in ADO to a custom field in JIRA. The field in JIRA was a text field. When trying to sync, this did not work and broke the integration. How would I go about doing this? I also want to do this from ADO to JIRA so if you could provide those details as well, it would be greatly appreciated.

To answer this question, we will need to know what configuration is in place. However, you should be doing:
Azure Devops Outgoing Sync:
replica.assignee = workItem.assignee
Jira Cloud Incoming Sync
issue.customFields."Your custom field name".value = replica.assignee?.displayName
Or either:
issue.customFields."Your custom field name".value = replica.assignee?.email
Let me know if that helps.
Kind regards,
Ariel
