For Example, we created a single select field with the following selections: * YES * NO and we want the default value to be "NO" How can we do that in the Jira Product Discovery Field?

nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

How can we make a default value in Jira Product Discovery

Hi @Ralph Gerald Varon

As suggested by Christos, a very simple automation rule can solve your requirement.

This is how we solve it for a checkbox field (see example below). Note that advanced edit might not be necessary for your field type, depending on the field type your YES/NO field is.

Don't forget to restrict this rule only to your JPD project in the automation rule details tab.

Hi @Ralph Gerald Varon

I believe this is not supported yet in JPD. u have to use automation on create issue to put the default value or some 3rd party app that supports JPD fields.

+1 to what Mart said, default values aren't available in Jira Product Discovery at the moment, but we have added this suggestion in our Jira Product Discovery project.

I see, so this is the only way, I appreciate the answer still. Thank you!

I'm just not sure if this is a good way to solve it because in our instance, we only have 500 automation limits in the JPD.

If u have Scriptrunner for Jira Cloud or JMWE for cloud i thing u can do it from there also and it doesn't count in your automation runs
