Hi there! Is it possible to customize the Flagged field. My intention is having different type of Flags to distinguish the various blockers.

Hi @Augusto D'Amario  - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I have done this in the past, but then they locked the field. I would suggest creating an accompanying custom field with your choices and use automation to populate it, or just populated it directly.

Hi @Augusto D'Amario , welcome to the community!

Unfortunately there is no customization for adding different levels of flagging.

Hi @Augusto D'Amario and welcome to the community!

No.  The flagged field is a locked field.  However, you could do something like this:

  • Create a custom flag field of your own (I've created a select field simply called 🚩 in my past). 
  • Set up an automation rule that whenever the 🚩 is updated to set/remove the native flag accordingly

This will provide the flag functionality along with the ability for custom flagging that you desire.
