Priority Field Is Missing on Bugs

Oz Inderbitzin May 14, 2025

My "Bugs" work type doesn't display the Priority field. No other work type has this issue. Yes, I have added the Priority field to Context fields. It is in the Context fields list for every work type (task, story, etc) and works perfectly. Except for Bugs.

 

I'm losing my mind.

Hi Oz,

 

In Team-managed projects within Jira, the Priority field might appear missing from the issue form if it's not been configured to be displayed on the specific work type (like a Task or User Story). To add the Priority field, you need to customize the fields for the relevant work type. 
Here's how to add the Priority field:
  1. Locate the Work Type: Go to the project settings, then navigate to the "Work Types" section. 
  2. Select the Work Type: Choose the specific issue type (e.g., Task, User Story) where you want to add the Priority field. 
  3. Find and Add the Field: In the field configuration, search for the "Priority" field and drag it to the list of visible fields on the work type. 
  4. Save Changes: Save the changes to the field configuration. 

Thanks

As I mentioned, this is set up correctly, and works correctly for all other work  types.

Thanks for the quick response man. It's a Team-Managed software project, and there is no "Find your field" option in the menu
