Viewing field context from work item layout
Christian Lipski
June 15, 2026 edited
Some fields in a work item layout include a link to the field's context, field options, default values.
1. Is it just the fields with global contexts?
2. Can any user with Edit Work Item Layouts permission follow the link even if they don't have the permission to edit the field itself?
My assumption is no, since it just takes you to the normal context page for a field. If that's true, will users see the link even though they can't follow it?
