Custom field values

Aswathi D

Hi 

I have a custom field in jira called " assigned teams " and the values are A,B,C,D ..

I need to remove B,C and add F 

But this new value F should replace all the queries , user stories which are using the values B and C 

How can I do this ?

I don't know where these values are used as well ..

Hi Aswathi!

First of all add team F to the Custom Field choices.

If you have access to Global Automations, you should be able to create an automation that is run across all projects like this.

1. When: Manual Trigger (if this is a one time only thing)
2. Add New Condition
   1. Select JQL condition
   2. Create a JQL string that matches your reality, something like: "Assigned Team[Dropdown]" in (B, C)
   3. Save
3. Then add New Action
   1. Select Edit Issue
   2. Press the Cogwheel dropdown and select Assigned Team
   3. Select team F here
   4. Save

Now the automation is completed and once it runs it will look for all issues where Team B,C is assigned and edit it to team F.

I do have some suggestions, either to only do it for Non-Resolved issues, or Issues created after a specific date. Perhaps don't delete B and C, only mark them as Non-Active, so you aren't changing the past just to fit the present/future.
