How do I select issues in the issue picker that I don't have permission to see

Question

Hello, community.
I have a field of type issue picker with currentJql set. But because the issue security level is configured in my project, the issues queried by currentJql will filter out what I can't see.
I have a request now, I hope that I can select the issue that is filtered by permissions, after completion, I don't need to see all the content of this issue, I just want to show his summary.
Excuse me, can this be achieved using fields of type custom picker provided by ScriptRunner? Or, what should I do

Hi @James Lebron

Elements Connect allows you to configure an issue picker based on a JQL query of your choice.

It's really simple and takes no code at all.

Feel free to contact me if you need more information or have any questions (I am the Product Manager of Elements Connect)

PS : thank you @Florian Bonniec for the endorsement!

Yes, I think you understand my question.
For my core issue, I just want to get some information such as the summary and Id of the issue, I don't want to get the issue object
I'm going to try from the advice you gave

Hi @James Lebron

There is no way to achieve this using JQL as JQL respect permission, so if a user do not have permission to use it it will not be returned by the JQL then not available in the list.

If you just want to have a list of issue key and summary for instance but don't actually want to select the Issue Object itsefl I used to use the App Elements Connect with a field that populate value from JIAR database using a SQL query.

You should be able to do it with Scriptrunner now, the UI is less user friendly than Connect but you seem to already have Scriptrunner.

If you need to link the selected issue or what ever, you should be able to manage to script something with a listener or automation for JIRA.
