Is it possible for a specific user present in a profield to edit a specific custom field anywhere?

Question

Is it possible for a specific user present in a profield to edit a specific custom field, anywhere on any status of that particular issue on all the projects present.

The users are present in a profield and all of them only need to get the permission to edit just one specific custom field (containing radio buttons) at any status/transition of a particular issue. The issue can be present on any state/transition. And it can be from any workflow.

@MANISHA KAUSHIKIf you are creating a custom plugin,

* First Create a simple Custom Field plugin.* https://developer.atlassian.com/server/jira/platform/creating-a-custom-field-in-jira/
* https://developer.atlassian.com/server/jira/platform/creating-a-custom-field-type/

* Next, create a configuration page in Project Admin or System Admin, to configure Group and Users that will have permission to edit fields of type you have created* You can save configuration in Active Objects - https://developer.atlassian.com/server/framework/atlassian-sdk/active-objects-plugin-module/

* Next, while creating Custom Field Type, you have to create edit template,* In that template simply check for permission from your configuration.

I hope this will give you a good starting point for creating a custom solution.

Hello @DPKJ ,

Could you kindly assist me with something more on this if you have worked on this.

As, I am doing some implementations now, but is is not setting permission of blocking other users apart from all whom I selected for editing that specific custom field.

@MANISHA KAUSHIKJira doesn't provide permission level control on fields in issue by default.

You can look at some plugins in Marketplace that provide this functionality, for example,

* Customfield Editor for Jira

* Secure Fields for Jira
