Set Options of Select List Link to Other Project

[Jack Yang]

Hi there,

I'm trying to create a select list custom field, and my requirement is the options in there can link to issues under a specific project.
For example, current in project A, and I'd like select issues under Project B in the dropdown, how to set the options? is a script needed? or can reach it via post function?

Now I have 2 questions
1. I already set a custom field and set my target project in context, however, still unable to select it (Screenshot 1)

2. I've added this field into the screen, but still not showing is the form (Screenshot 2)

Thanks in advanced

Hi @Jack Yang ,

What I usually do is, when creating a new Custom field, I leave the default context as it is:

Then I create a different context, where I need a different data per project, i.e.

Project A

Context for project A, Issue type -> Story -> Default value (1,2,3)

Project B

Context for Project B, Issue type -> Bug -> Default value (2,3,5)

2. The easiest way to find why a field is not seen in a project is to open a ticket in the project -> Clicking on the three dots -> Find your field

Hope it helps!
