How can I deny permission to edit ONLY the summary in certain status?

Hi! I need to not let users change the summary in a specific status.

I don´t want to deny ALL the permissions to edit, just the summary.

How can I do that?

Thanks!

Hi Santino,

There's no way to do this, as Jira does not have field level permissions.

You can do it as a blanket ban, meaning no-one can edit the summary in any status by removing it from the edit screen, but that's probably not what you are looking for.

Even Behaviours in Scriptrunner can't help you on Cloud - Jira Cloud does not expose the Status to Behaviours, so there's no way to write one that says "If status = X then make field read-only"
