I'm assuming that this would need to be done within Automation.
@Steve Hooczko,
You cannot force them to fill out a value after a transition, but you could use add a screen to the transition and then use a validator to require a field on that screen to be populated.
Are you familiar with transition screens and how they work?
Thanks, Kian
Are you talking about making a field required in order to execute the transition or to make a field required once an issue is in a particular status?
In either case, I don't think that Automation is going to assist, since an Automation rule makes a thing happen, but can't enforce behavior before it happens.
For that, you'd likely need a third party plugin like Scriptrunner, JMWE, or JSU to conditionally make a field required.
which validator do i use? The only one I see in the "Add Validator to Transition" list that may apply is Previous State Validator.
I tried that validator and no screen appeared to update the field.
Do I need to setup a screen "scheme" for this screen, as well?
Hi @Steve Hooczko,
Your requirement can be achieved using "Field Required Validator" provided by "Jira Misc Workflow Extensions (JMWE)" app.
See the documentation of this validator here and give it a try.
BTW, I'm from Appfire, the vendor of JMWE app.

Hello @Steve Hooczko,
I am part of the Decadis team and this should also be possible with the Fields required or changed validator from our app JWT for Jira Cloud.
Best regards,
