Dynamic screens in Jira?

Tammy Lechner

Can screens in Jira 4.4 show fields on a screen dynamically based on user selection from a drop down or checkbox? Example: for business users/requests that would have a limited number of fields that need to appear and if it is an IT user/request, additional fields need to appear when a new issue is created.

You can either use some Javascript in same the description of the field, write a plugin, or use the Beahviours Plugin.

The idea is to make all the fields available on the JIRA side and control what is/isn't available based on user selection.

For example, we've used this so when a user selects "Other" from a drop down an additional text field is shown for the user to fill in.
