Create a dependent field in Jira 6.2.2

RamamandA

Hi,

I am looking for steps to create dependent fields in Jira. My requirement is that, I would like to create a dependent dropdown value set. For example, If I have two fields Car Make and Model. So if I select Car make as Toyota the model field should show Camry, Corolla etc and I select Honda as a make then model should show Civic, CRV etc.

I would appreciate if someone can guide me with the steps to achieve it. Can this achieved by using any plugin? I tried behaviors plugin but I think it doesn't with 6.2.2. Is there a step by step documentation on achieving this?

Thanks for your help!

You can use the built-in Cascading Select custom field type. It allows defining options just like you want. Try it out and get back if you've got troubles setting this up.

Thanks Boris! I learnt something new in Jira today! But, I think this is not helping me when I elaborate my requirement further. I have defined some components in Jira. And there are 2-3 fields whose drop down value set is based on the value of Component field. Looks like with cascading there is only 1 to 1 relationship between parent value and child. I am looking for 1 to many. So based value of component (or any other field) I would like to calculate the dropdown values of child field 1, field 2 , field 3.

Thanks again for your help!

Check if this custom field add-on will satisfy your requirements

Otherwise if it's even more complicated you can probably use Script Runner's scripted field and use some funky groovy scripts to calculate the options to be shown

Hi Friends,

Its 2018 now, Is there any add-in which can perform this requirement. I know about Power Custom Fields but they have limitation like it works only with Autocomplete feature and max two custom fields can be dependent, I have around 5 fields dependent on single parent.

Just wanted to know, if we have any thing else to achieve this now.

Thanks.

Boris mentioned ScriptRunner four years ago. That add-on has "behaviours" which can modify the way fields work in the client. It can do many field connections.

Try Stagil Assets plugin. Bit complicated but good one.

Is this possible in JIRA Cloud?

No, Cloud does not support functions like Behaviours.
