Restrict epics list in "Epic Link" field

[Narendra Kumar]

Hi Team,

I want to display the epics that are belong to some specific projects not to all in "Epic Link" field.

Generally when we create a new issue, Epic Link field shows all possible list of epics that can be linked.

How to restrict the drop down list for this field ?

Thanks!

Hi Narenda,

You are not able to do that in Cloud.

Hi @John Funk  is there any alternative using add-on like JMWE ?

What if we can put a validator to do this ?

Let me know if it can work. Thanks!

[John Funk]

No, I am not aware of any that will do that.  :-(

Actually, you could use a Build-your-own Validator from JMWE to validate that the parent epic belongs to the appropriate project. Something like:

issue.epic == null || ["PROJ","TEST"].includes(issue.epic.project.key)

(where PROJ and TEST are project keys)

Hi @David Fischer  thank you for your support and help.

Yes, it can be an alternate solution by using JMWE validator to allow epics linking from selected projects.

Great thanks.

Narendra
