Field | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Field Name | String | The name of the custom field to be searched and used in the screen configuration |
Field Description | String | Additional description to be displayed for the end users |
Multiple | Checkbox | Automatically set and read only: when the admin creates “Single Issue Picker and Linker” or “Multiple Issue(s) Picker and Linker” OR Checked: Many issues can be picked and linked |
JQL | String with Jira JQL Syntax | Any JQL to define the issues to be picked and linked Empty: ALL Issues will be displayed |
Issue Link Type | 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). |
Delete used options not matching JQL | Checkbox | Options within an issue picker's custom fields may no longer match the JQL results. This mismatch can occur if the JQL is modified or if issue values are updated. Our app automatically removes options that aren't selected in any issue and no longer match the JQL. If these options are in use and the issue picker is optional, you can choose whether to delete the options from all issues and then from the option list using this parameter. However, if the issue picker is a required field or not part of edit screen, Jira Cloud won't allow the deletion of these options. To proceed, you'd need to set the custom field to optional and re-index the issue picker. |
