Use users set in environments to approve a Booking Request

Use Case

Imagine that we have the following situation

Our user names of our approvers are defined in an environment attribute called “Approvers” (separated by a comma when several approvers)
We use an “Approvers” multi-user select custom field in our Booking Requests to approve the transition

We would like to achieve the following:

When the requester selects an Environment in the Environment Custom Field “Environment(s) to Book”, we would like to automatically populate the “Approvers” custom field with all user names found in “Approvers” attribute of the environments to book

You can perform this by adding a Script Runner Listener or a Script Runner Post Function with following script. Example of a Listener:
