Is it possible to hide a field just for some users?

Question

Hello, I have the need to show a field only to some users and to hide to other users. Is there a way to do it? I am thinking if it is possible to make the field visible just for a user group, and make it hidden for another user group, I tried to search the possible field configuration options but I didn't find anything. Is there any other solution to solve this need?

Thanks

Hi @Giulia Foglia ,

=> We can't restrict the Users to access the specific field. If you have added the specific fields on the separated Issue type then it can be only seen in that Issue type.

=> Eventhough if they have project access they can able to see the fields present in all the Issue types.

=> By using Issue security scheme you can restrict the Users to see the particular category tickets but not a specific field.

Thanks, unfortunately we don't have ScriptRunner and for my number of users is not free and quite expensive :(

Many thanks for your reply. In my case the fields to be hidden for some users is not part of the workflow, it's just a field visible on some issue types tab. Is your suggestion valid also in my case? Many thanks
