Hi @Shanmukha Teja Badana ,

Please check  ProForma: Forms & Checklist for Jira Plugin from Atlassian. This provides the ability to add pages, forms, checklists etc . Full details are explained in https://docs.thinktilt.com/proforma/

FYI: Atlassian has acquired Thinktilt.

If your are looking only for checklists, then check https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1216451/smart-checklist-for-jira-pro?tab=overview&hosting=cloud

Hi @Rilwan Ahmed ,

Yes, ofcourse we can add multi line and add the specific field at required places, but if we want some empty page to display and fill the content, then is there any alternative for this requirement?

Hi @Shanmukha Teja Badana ,

If you are Jira admin, then go to Admin settings --> Issues --> Custom field
Add new Text Field(Multi Line) field. Give name to the field.

Once field is added, add them to required project issue type screens.

Hope this helps to add required contents. Let me know if any questions
