Global Fields

Question

Is there a way to share custom fields and values across Jira Software and Jira Product Discovery projects? Or even across separate Jira Product Discovery projects?

It's less than ideal to have to create the exact same custom fields that we have in Jira Software within Jira Product Discovery.

Or, is there a way to differentiate the names that you see via JQL, as we are currently pulling fields with the exact same name and it's difficult to know which is the correct field to select.

Hi @Blake Falanga ,

We will start beta testing in April, so according to the feedback, we aime for a couple of months after that.

Hi @Rohan Swami , thanks! We have custom fields that we maintain in Jira Software, which we would love to be able to use the same fields and field values in Jira Product Discovery to avoid maintaining multiple separate lists. This helps us classify ideas that are submitted to our team and then determine the best way to route them.

Also, when querying for issues, it is very difficult to select the right custom field, if they have the same name across different projects.

Thank you, @Hanna ! Very exciting news. Is there any timeline on when this feature will be rolled out for everyone to use?
