Check box field increase to more than 55 options

[Pedro Henrique Barreto Carvalho]

I created a custom selection field in Jira and I would like to add more than 55 items inside this field. By default, I see that jira limits up to 55 response options. How can I increase?

I have a team managed project and this field allows me to select from 55 options. I would like more. Can you help me?

Hi @Pedro Henrique Barreto Carvalho , you cannot increase this number by my knowledge.

The more important question is WHY?

[Pedro Henrique Barreto Carvalho]

Hello @Dave Mathijs 

I would like to create a list of applicants, as we generate a BI for those responsible to filter what they need, as they do not have access to Jira. So I would like a way to extract information from different people. Is it possible to do it via Json, JQL or search from an excel spreadsheet?

[Pedro Henrique Barreto Carvalho]

Any return?

Hi @Dave Mathijs  Do you have other option?

[Dave Mathijs]

Well, checkboxes provide one long list. Single or multi-select list allow you to have a single drop-down.

So basically, you're building kind of a crm for your applicants, am I correct?

No, the number of options cannot be increased.
