Can I change the default value for the Priority field when creating a new Bug?

[bill.hewitt]

Is there a way for me to change the default value of Priority (currently set to Medium) when creating a Bug to Low (or Lowest)?

Priority is a global field so changing the default applies to all issues in all projects. But you can use Automation to achieve your goal....

trigger - issue created

condition - field condition type = bug

action - edit issue set priority

Oh boy...
