Set Priority Default to Blank

[Jaime Laird]

Is there a way to set the default 'Priority' field in Jira to be blank upon issue creation (ideally by project and by issue type, but we are interested in a global setting too)? We do not often use this field and having it automatically populate to 'Medium' (or anything but blank) has unintended consequences with integrations and may result in work being prioritized that doesn't need to be.

Hi @Jackson Farnsworth

Yes, Jira use velocity.

If both $var.size() and $var.length() comes with the same error,

Then you better check that you pass/access your "var" correctly...

Try also ".size()" or ".size"

None of these seem to work. I just switched to using an ArrayList<String> object. That seems to have worked fine.

Hi Jackson,

Confluence uses Velocity, not sure about Jira. Try $var.length()

I've tried ".length" and ".length()", both being displayed as text instead of being interpreted. I've used ".getClass()" to confirm that the variable being passed in is a String[]
