Auto incremental custom field based on ticket creation

[Prathap DL]

Hi Community,

I have a requirement in Jira Cloud where I need a custom field (let’s call it Document Number) to automatically increment every time a new issue is created.

For example:

• When the first ticket is created → Document Number = 6000
• Next ticket → Document Number = 6001
• Next ticket → Document Number = 6002
  …and so on.

Is there any way that can I achieve this?

Note: We are using jira cloud
