How do I make both Cascading fields required in Jira Cloud

Question

Hi Team,

Need to get an error from Jira because the 2nd drop-down was not filled out for child value, and it should be required for cascading type fields in Jira cloud.

Note: ScriptRunner plug-in isn't available in our instance

Thanks In Advance!

If you can install a workflow editor (there are paid and free ones), you can add the following:

issue.customfield_XXXXXX.child.value != "None"

This will make the child field required.

Hi Sudheer,

Unfortunatly only the firest dropdown from a cascade-dropdown is mandatory in roder to sumbit a ticket. As native functionalily you cannot set the second dropdown as mandatory.

Maybe with some plugins.

Hope this helps.
