    Multiple

    Checkbox

    Automatically set and read only: when the admin creates “Single Issue Picker and Linker” or “Multiple Issue(s) Picker and Linker” OR
    Set by Admin when the Custom Field is created from Pick and Link Issue app configuration menu

    Checked: Many issues can be picked and linked
    Unchecked: Only one issue can be picked and linked.

    JQL

    List of contexts

    The first line is for the default global context, for the options displayed in the global context you have 3 options:

    • Empty : 0 options

    • All : all the issues will be added

    • JQL : choose the list of issues to be added

    With the button “+ Context JQL“ a new line will be added, so you can choose the project, the issue type and finally the jql ( all 3 are required )

    Issue Link Type
    Issue Link Direction

    Select List

    The Admin can select the link type and direction to be created automatically when issues are picked in the Custom Field.

    Empty: No Links are created

    Sync Link Changes

    Checkbox

    We recommend to hide the configured Link Type in the Dialog Issue > More > Links or in the Field Linked Issues (Using Link Schema’s. This feature is planned in the next version of this app).
    In the case where the end user uses the configured link, this option allows to sync automatically the Custom Field after any Link change.
