Field Configuration

Before starting the field configuration, please follow the instructions for creating custom fields

Create a Custom Field

 

 

Step 1: Set a name and description

Provide a good name for the new custom field. Make it descriptive, concise, and easy to understand for others who will use it. Avoid using ambiguous or overly technical terms.

 

 

Step 2: Setup permissions

During testing, you have the option to "grant access to all users," effectively disabling the feature for broader evaluation.

 

 

Alternatively, when opting for "restrict permissions," you can specify roles, individual users, or groups that are exclusively granted the ability to read and write the field value. For all other users, the field value remains obscured, appearing as illegible text and ensuring restricted visibility.

It's important to note that even when access is restricted, the field value can still be set through API or automation by unauthorized users. However, this "readable value" will not be visible in the issue view, maintaining the intended confidentiality and privacy measures.


Field view and edit

 

 

Edit view

When a user is granted permission, you can input your secure value. The information box will display the authorized users, roles, or groups that have the capability to read or write that specific value, providing transparent visibility into the permitted access.

 

 

Unauthorized users will be unable to edit or view the specified value.
