    Description

      Using Automation for Jira, I'd like to nest smart values as follows:

      {{project.properties.issue.component}}
      

      Assuming a project property like this:

      {
      key: "Component A",
      value: "5caccd8a1608c412138787e3"
      }
      

      And also support complex JSON objects stored in entity properties, like so:

      {{project.properties.issue.component.approver2}}
      

      The project property would look like this:

      {
          key: "Component B",
          value: {
             "approver1": "5cc8aeebcbbec211ec62a0ec",
             "approver2": "5e7bf681dde7030c4f20dec6"
          }
      }
      

      But even better would be if we could have a single Project property with these mappings, like so:

      {
          key: "MappingList",
          value: {
              "Component A" : {
                     "approver1": "zyx",
                     "approver2": "wvu",
              },
              "Component B" : {
              "approver1": "abc",
                      "approver2": "xyz",
              },
                     "Component B" : {
                    "approver1": "def",
             "approver2": "ghi",
            },
            }
      }
      

      And we could reference it like this:

      {{project.properties."MappingList".{{issue.component}}.approver2}}

      Introducing nested smart values would be a great addition to be used in conjunction with the create lookup table feature. For example:

      {{Lookuptable.get("{{smartvalue}}")}}
