Introduction

Welcome to the official documentation for the Jira Issue Picker DC add-on! 🎉

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

Main Features

• Single or Multiple Selection: Configure the field to allow users to select a single issue or multiple issues, depending on your needs.

• Powerful JQL Filter: As an administrator, you can define a JQL query to restrict the issues available for selection, ensuring that users can only link relevant issues (e.g., only bugs from the same project or only stories that are not resolved).

• Intuitive Search: Users can find issues by typing the issue key or words from the summary, with results appearing instantly.

• Rich Information Display: Don't just display an issue key. You can configure the view to show the priority, assignee, and status of the selected issue, giving you context at a glance.

• Clear Visual Indicators: The field provides visual cues, such as striking through resolved issues or highlighting selections that are no longer valid due to configuration changes.

• Centralized Administration: A dedicated administration page allows you to easily manage and configure all your Jira Issue Picker fields in one place.

Who is this for?

• Jira Administrators: Easily configure fields to meet specific project requirements.
• Project Managers: Link related tasks, epics, and stories to get 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.
