Notion of Properties

We now support Custom Properties (aka Custom Fields in Jira) for your versions and packages.

How to define?

Go to Board Settings and select Properties section of configuration.

Open

Type the name of you first custom property, select whether you want to apply it to Version or Package and pick up the Data Type you want to use. At this stage the following types are available:

• String

• Paragraph (so, you can create alternative Descriptions)

• Number

• Date

• Datetime (so, you can create additional trackable dates to start/release date and milestones)

• User (Jira users lookup)

• Multi-user

• Single Select

• Multi Select

Open

To complete your action click “Add“.

To remove it click on “x“ on the right. A confirmation pop-up will appear to confirm you want to remove the field from all the versions/packages.

Mandatory Properties

You can mark properties as mandatory. In this case:

• they will show up on creation screen for version and packages

• also for creation from package template

• will be marked as required on version/package summary tab

• an API call will fail as an attempt to create / update version/package w/o mandatory fields specified

How to view and edit?

Once you configured your customer properties for versions and packages you can now see/edit them on version/package summary page.

Defining the order

If you want to change the order of your properties outlined you can do it in configuration. Just drag and drop lines with properties to setup the order. The order for version and package properties are defined separately.
