User can only view the assignee field

[Muhammad Moazzam Hassan]

Hey,

I want that users can only view the assignee field they cannot edit them, they can only edit while transitioning the issue, is it possible?

Hi @Muhammad Moazzam Hassan this is possible.

First of all, create separate screens for each issue operation, place the Assignee field on the view issue screen only.

Then, in your screen scheme, assign each screen to the corresponding issue operation (create, edit, view)

Create a transition screen with the Assignee field and add the transition screen to a transition (or multiple) in your workflow.

This way, the Assignee field can only be filled/changed during a transition. Make sure the Assignee field is not required as it is not filled in during creation of an issue.

Hey, I have tried this solution but unfortunately the Assignee field still remains visible in detailed view of issue

[Dave Mathijs]

Oh, so you want to completely remove it, even from the issue detail view? But why?

[Muhammad Moazzam Hassan]

If it is visible in the edit view, means it is editable.

Look what I want is ti just visible on both images but in the issue detailed view it is editable as well. I don't want to hide this I just want same as in the screenshot on viewable
