Kanban view on different issues

[Helena Palys]

HI Team, 

I'd like to ask your help. In one of our projects we have setup the required issues, however their workflows are different so their statuses are also different. 

When I go to Kanban board, I'd imagine by selecting one type of issue, the kanban board would update itself to reflect the relevant statuses but unfortunately this isn't the case. 

Could you please help?

Hi @Urszula Forenc

Nope, you can not add/apply the permission-based on Custom Filed.

Jira does not have field level security but might be https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/23216/field-security-plugin-for-jira?hosting=server&tab=overview add-on helps you.

Please have a look at this.

Hi 

We also have similar situation where we to grant the edit permission to one of the custom field to specific user/group.

Is there any option in Jira ver 8.?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

No.  8 does not do this and Atlassian have said they're never going to implement anything like it.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist- · Accepted solution]

No.  Jira has no field level controls like that.  You will need add-ons or coding to achieve it.

Hi!

It's possible but requires some action and it wouldn't be handy to use.

You should:

• remove this field from all the screens;
• edit the workflow to create new transition from the status back to itself;
• create new screen and associate the newly created transition with it;
• add the required field to the screen
• allow only users from a specific group/role to perform this transition.

Note, that this field wouldn't be visible when you "View" or "Edit" the issue. It only becomes visible/editable when you perform this special transition.
