How it's possible to update a value of a read only custom field through JIRA UI?
JIRA Core does not offer this by default. You can use JIRA Utilities Plugin https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.googlecode.jira-suite-utilities/server/overview. This will enable a set custom field value in a post function in your workflow.
Why do you call a field a read-only field if you want to update it through UI ? Or is it currently a read-only custom field and now you want to turn it to en editable field ?
Your answer for this may shed some lights on how you can do it in a meaningful way.
The description does say "value can only be set by code" when you go to add one.
Hmm, I may not have enough permission to see all of the info in this ticket or what?
I saw only the title to be: "How do I set a read only custom field value?" and one line description "How it's possible to update a value of a read only custom field through JIRA UI?"
Do you mean that there is more description than that one liner here for this ticket? Just curious to know if I miss something here.
It's not a ticket, it's a question.I think Marcio is trying to ask and answer a question that comes up regularly so that questioners get an authoritative and simple response when they start typing their question.
