How to select and hide the selected custom fields in jira for a specific user group.

Hi 

I am learning Jira plugin development. I want to select some custom fields and hide/unhide them for a certain user group. How can I achieve that?

Hi @Shivya2708 You can do achieve this using Behavior functionality of Script runner plugin.

Hi @Vikrant Yadav 

By using script runner people with Jira administrator permission will be able to hide those fields, but I want that functionality for the project admin people.

Is it possible for those with Project Admin permissions to choose which fields are hidden for all users of that project?

Hi @Shivya2708 Jira doesn't do field level security.

You can do one thing, create two parallel transition and add two different screen for these two transitions. One screen contain field which A group user and second screen for B group users. then add condition in workflow according to group .
