I need to create a Number custom field (Integer)

Sofia G January 27, 2025

I've been tasked with creating a custom field that stores integer values in Jira Software (cloud). However, I've been explicitly asked not to use the "Text" field type, as it could cause issues when the team generates reports, uses dashboards, or groups values.

Is there a way to achieve this effectively?

Hi @Sofia G 

 

You can use a Number field. Scroll down about 1/4 of the following page:

this Number field is not for integer only, it is for decimals
