When attempting to add the Creator field to a screen, the Creator field does not appear in the Select Field dropdown when configuring the screen. Why is this?
The Creator field is set automatically and cannot be manually edited.
Not looking to edit it, only want it to display when viewing an issue.
It seems there is a change request about this.
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-60281
The Creator field is a system field that is used to identify who was the true creator of an issue, since the Reporter field can be modified. This field is used to map the issue log for security or support purposes, so it cannot be edited. Therefore, it will not appear in the Select Field dropdown when configuring a screen.
You could create a custom field to display, and use automation to copy the value from the Creator field to the custom field.
Still, it should be possible to SHOW it. I'm not interested in editing it.
