How to "Link to a Confluence Page" in the create issue Jira screen?

Peg Rotstein_j2z8dd

When we create a new Jira issue, we would like to link to the Confluence page where mockups and requirements are documented for the issue.  Currently, I don't see a way to do that when creating an issue.  We have to first create issue, then go into the edit screen to access the "Link Issue">"Link Confluence page".

Is this possible and am I missing something? or should I request as new feature?

Thanks!

Hi @Peg Rotstein 

 

So out of the box it doesn't appear to be possible on Cloud, see: 

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-62602

However, a workaround here would be to create a custom field and place it on the create screen that would store the URL that way. 

The problem here is that it won't populate under the native "Link Issue" > "Link Confluence Page"

There are some powerful 3rd party add-ons on the Atlassian Marketplace that might be worth checking out but without knowing much about your organization, budget and so on, I can't really recommend anything but do have a look. 

 

Kind Regards,
