Is it possible to validate the user selected link type and issue type in issue create screen?

[Devarajan Mani]

I want to avoid the users from selecting wrong link type and issue type in Bug create screen following the steps below.

Click on create in my project and choose Bug issue type.

I fill the summary and other mandatory fields.

I fill the linked issue field by selecting a link type and an issue which is not valid.

So I need to VALIDATE and restrict the customer from selecting wrong link type and issues and show an error message on screen.

@Devarajan Mani all validation takes place after the update action (in this case create issue) has taken place so the only way you can restrict customers from selecting the wrong link type is to edit the available link types so that only valid link types can be selected.

@Stephen_Lugton ,Is it possible to edit the available link types so that the users can select available link type from dropdown?

Addon are not a concern if you can recommend any?

You need an admin to edit the link types, but see here for how to do it

I am sorry that my question is not to edit the linking type. I want to list only the relevant link types applicable for particular issue type. I do not want to show all the link types. Thanks
