Introduction

Welcome to the official documentation for the Dynamic Work Item Picker add-on! 🎉

This add-on provides a powerful and flexible custom field that allows users to search, select, and link one or more Jira work items intuitively from another work item. It is designed to streamline workflows where you need to create relationships between work items, such as tracking dependencies, referencing related tasks, or escalating bugs.

Key Features

• Single or Multiple Selection: Configure the field to allow users to select a single work item or multiple work items, depending on your needs.
• Powerful JQL Filter: As an administrator, you can define a JQL query to restrict the work items available for selection, ensuring that users can only link relevant work items (e.g., only bugs from the same project or only unresolved stories).
• Intuitive Search: Users can find work items by typing the work item key or words from the summary, with results appearing instantly.
• Rich Information Display: Don't just display an work item key. You can configure the view to show the priority, assignee, and status of the selected work item, giving you context at a glance.
• Integrated Configuration: The field configuration is done directly from the Jira field administration section, maintaining a native Cloud experience.

Who is this for?

• Jira Administrators: Easily configure fields to meet specific project requirements.
• Project Managers: Link related tasks, epics, and stories for a better overview of project dependencies.
• Development and QA Teams: Link bugs to the user stories that caused them or tasks to the incidents they resolve.
