Description

Environment

SaaS (https://sentry.io/)

Steps to Reproduce

We use ownership rules like * #team-xy for all projects, since a project is usually assigned to a specific team. Sentry parses this as path:* #team-xy.

Prioritize Auto Assignment is set to Auto-assign to issue owner.

Still some issues are created without assignment. We tried different combinations like * vs path:* and assigning to teams or users.

Expected Result

New issue is assigned to #team-xy

Actual Result

New issue is not assigned at all.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Sentry SaaS with an ownership rule such as * #team-xy or path:* #team-xy and Auto-assign to issue owner enabled. Trace the assignment behavior for newly created issues; done means issues covered by the rule are assigned to the configured team owner.
