Labels in epic description

Michał Bieńkowski
September 11, 2020

I would like to create labes for my system keywords like e.g. PC-A, PC-B, PCBA etc, so I can have something like dictionary. With this I could easily refer to e.g. particular PC. Then with this labels I could write epic description like "<PC-A> shall do this and this. <PC-B> shall to something else." (where <> represents label). How to do it in Jira? In Todoist if you have a label you can easily access it just by use of @ character.

 

EDIT:

Perhaps my problem description is not clear enough, at least that's what I assumed based on the replays. What I really need is a dictionary - I just thought that labels could do the trick, but now I see it's wrong direction. In my opinion it is really hard to describe a requirement using only fields. Even if it's possible, it won't be readable and for sure everyone could interpret it in different way. 

The point is to define a dictionary in one place e.g. PC-A is a PC with serial number XXX, PC-B with s/n YYY. And then write description and reference this dictionary item (find on the list). The best would be something like this https://get.todoist.help/hc/en-us/articles/205195042-Labels but with one dictionary per project.

Hi Rahul,

there're a lot of bundled plugins that JIRA provides as default plugins. Please, take a look to Add-ons-> System Plugins in order to have a full list.

Hope this helps,

Fabio
