Custom fields in Jira are user-defined attributes that can be added to issues to capture specific information beyond the default fields provided by Jira. Custom fields allow organizations to tailor Jira to their unique workflows and data requirements. They can be of various types, such as text, date, number, user picker, and more, enabling teams to collect and track information pertinent to their processes, projects, and reporting needs.
A cascading field in Jira allows users to select values hierarchically. This is often used to categorize issues with a multi-level classification system. For instance, selecting a value in the primary dropdown (e.g., "Hardware") might determine the available options in the secondary dropdown (e.g., "Laptop," "Desktop," "Printer"), thereby helping users provide more specific and structured information about an issue.
💡 With Custom Fields Suite for Jira, you can create up to 7 levels of cascading fields and implement them on the service desk portal.
The regular Expression field in Jira allows text validation in a specific, wanted format. For example, the Card number Regex custom field will accept only 16 digits. Another way is that it will show that the format does not match the requirements.
The Dynamic custom field (Jira Expressions) is a read-only field that customizes how fields behave in Jira. For example, this custom field can use other issue properties to show its value, such as the number of linked issues. This custom field inserts or counts values from current Jira issues.
💡Dynamic custom field is only read-only: in Jira issues and on the customer portal.
