Create different types of 'subtask'

Question

Hi everybody,

I would like to know if it was possible to create different type of subtasks :

User story > "Sub-story" (with its own name)

Bug > "Sub-bug"

Task > Subtask

X> "Subtask X"

Would there be an impact between projects of one instance which propose the native JIRA or there would be a way to separate it ?

It could be possible during the creation of the "sub"-issue type to be limited for the choice : for example, when I am in an "user story", when I click on 'create subtask", could I have only the "sub-story"  suggested ? (subbug for bug and subtask for task)

(context : we are developing a plugin)

Thank you very much for your help ! :)

Sandra,

Why not add your new sub-task(s) to the Issue Type Scheme of your project(s). From there, you can then select the sub-task of your choice, once you've created a ticket using a standard issue type.

JIRA doesn't allow issue type security. If you can create an issue you can create them all. There is no link between an issue type and a subtask type.  there may be with a plugin. You'd have to look in the marketplace.

When I'm in a issuetype, I would like just having its respective subtask when I click on  "create subtask" (just one in the customfield)...
