Customize key value for subtask

[Jithesh]

Hi Team,

When I create an Task or a subtask, system automatically assign a Key.

for instance if my Project code is "ABC" then Key will be ABC-22 or ABC-34 etc.

I would like to know if i can customize they way key is generate for the subtaks.

Like if the Key for Task is ABC-34 then any subtask under the issue ABC-34 to be numbered as ABC-34-1 or ABC-34-a etc

This will visually help everyone in the team, to easily related to which Task the SubTask belongs to.

Hi @Jithesh ,

keys are automatically managed by Jira based an internal counter (stored for each project into the database) and you're not able to update it in any way.
