Can we have seperate resolution fields or list for each project?

Question

I’d like to limit the list of resolution values used in a specific project. Is it possible to configure a separate set of resolution options for each project?

I want to ensure that any changes do not impact other projects currently using the resolution field. Could you also clarify whether the resolution field is shared across all projects, and if so, how we can implement project-specific customizations?

Try using  jira.field.resolution.include workflow property

Hi @Shrikant Khawale , welcome to the Community. Yes you can but it is a bit tedious.

For each workflow where a transition sets the resolution field you can use jira.field.resolution property to include or exclude resolutions. Include is generally the best option to protect against future resolutions being added.

I believe this documentation might provide more details on transition properties if you are unfamiliar - https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-workflow-transition-properties#api-group-workflow-transition-properties

Hi @Shrikant Khawale and welcome to the Atlassian community,

There is no concept of "resolution schemes" like you have for priorities, workflows, etc... which would allow you to have a different set per project.

What you can do is use the jira.field.resolution.include and jira.field.resolution.exclude workflow properties. See Transition Properties.
You do need to configure this on every transition so it could be time consuming depending on your exact situation.

In general I would recommend to keep the amount of different resolutions small and to keep values generic.
Because indeed, the resolution field is shared between all projects.
