Can I add a custom action to context menu on Board page? I'd love to have some quick access actions - "Assign to me", "Resolve" etc. Thank you.

Hi Dmytro,

In the current versions of Jira Cloud, it is not possible to customize these right click menus on a board and create your own links.  However there is an example feature request for this over in JSWCLOUD-8784

In the meantime, have you tried using the keyboard shortcuts?   In a Jira Cloud Software board, you can press the ? key to bring up a menu of possible keyboard shortcuts you can use here.  For example, if you first select an issue on a board and then press the 'a' key, this can bring up a popup to let you assign the issue to user.  While the 'O' key can open the selected issue in the full screen mode.  I realize this is not the same as what you requested, but perhaps this can help here.

Frustratingly the keyboard shortcuts only work when you click the issue and the modal pops up. If the process of opening and closing the modal was super speedy, it wouldn't be an issue, but it's very sluggish.

In Trello, you can hover your mouse over a ticket and press keyboard shortcuts to quickly prioritise and assign.
