Can we use existing custom fields (from Jira Software) in Jira Product Discovery?

[brent.johnson]

We have a custom field in our Jira Software projects (Squad) which we use for a few different things.

I've also created a custom field in Jira Product Discovery called Squad but ideally, these should be the same. This causes some issues when we do automations (it shows two Squad fields).

If I look in the Custom fields section of Jira admin, it only shows the Jira Software Squad, not the Jira Product Discovery Squad.

I think this might be a next-gen vs. classic project issue... but not 100% sure.

No, the column widths are fixed, you can't change them.

Is there an existing enhancement request?

Hi Robert, I've added your sugestion as an insights in our project, we already had similar feedback and we will take them into consideration when we will explore improvements around the board view.
