Hello, 

New to the community :)

I am trying to understand how to I find what projects the below fields belong too - They are not global fields; they have been built in team managed projects.

I want to go a put a prefix in front of them, so they are easily identifiable when doing dashboard and reporting/ Or better yet consolidate them and turn them into global to remove the duplication.

We have over 200 projects and don't really want to go over each one to find the field. any way to use the custom field ID to find what project?

Even the audit log doesn't advise what project it was created in.

Cheers :)

Hello @Corey Hemingway 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

From a browser tab you can execute the REST API call to retrieve all custom fields.

https://YourBaseURL/rest/api/3/field

You can search the output for the custom field identifier. That will show the Project IDs for the project(s) that use that field.

You can get the name, etc. for the project using this API endpoint:

/rest/api/3/project/{projectIdOrKey}
