How to make a form field required in Jira Work Management?

[James Duffy]

I created a Work Management project in Jira.

I created a form and added a single select custom field. However it looks like there are no possible ways to make this field required from the UI as I have seen in Service Management.

Is this not possible?

Hmmm, doesn't look like it's possible in the UI, your next best bet would be to set the field configuration on the JWM project to have that field required.

Hope this helps

To make a field mandatory when used through Jira's user interface, click the Required link associated with that field. The text Required appears next to the field's name. Hidden fields cannot be set as required. To make a field optional, click the Optional link associated with that field.
