Extract all custom field with associated issue screen

joanna.natial

Hello Admin,

Currently using Jira Cloud Product, I want to extract all custom fields with associated screen issue so I can evaluate all customs fields that are frequently use in our project.

Seems like Jira Cloud has no settings for this, could help me if there is any other way how to extract those custom fields.

I have removed my answer (I do not think I can delete it).

You can use REST API calls to get the information you are asking about. You can start with the screens and get the fields, or start with the fields to get the screens.

/rest/api/3/field

/rest/api/3/field/fieldId/screens

/rest/api/3/screens

/rest/api/3/screens/screenId/availableFields

Hello,

Welcome to the community

Please find details below

To get information about a custom field and the screens it is associated with in Jira, you can use the following Jira REST API endpoint:

1. First, you may want to list all custom fields to find the field ID:

GET /rest/api/3/field More details here : https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-fields/

2. Get the screens associated with the custom field

GET /rest/api/3/field/customfield_10000/screens

The custom field is id 10000 is from the first step

More details here : https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-screens/#api-rest-api-3-field-fieldid-screens-get

GET https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/field/customfield_10000/screens

good morning. @Prachi Bolar -- I see you are listed as being on the Atlassian Team. Did you even try my spreadsheet? (I am just curious). Your answer is correct (ish) but how many steps would an admin have to take? (A rhetorical question).

My spreadsheet executes the ATLASSIAN REST CALLS using MICROSOFT POWER QUERY code. Sure, I add a little logic here or there. But is essentially me making use of same parts of your product you discuss.

My solution is very reusable and this process is repeatable for all of the ATLASSIAN GET Apis. My way is basically a simplification of yours.

Final point... here is my way executed against 3 sites I have access to Including jira.atlassian.com. It took me less than 5 minutes and all I had to do is change URLS

Hello @David Nickell

To be clear, it is not "my" plugin. I don't work for the vendor that provides that plugin. I just happen to be aware of it. There may be others that provide comparable functionality.
