How to configure fields for company managed projects

[Corey]

I really do not understand how to add more fields or change the available ones. I open the list of available fields, and see some used in other projects, but when I try to add them to my project they don't exist (using the little "+" button tab). Clearly there's something fundamental about how this works I do not understand. Any tips?

I have admin status for company managed projects and all our projects have to be CM because of integration with monday.com.

Hi @Corey 

Only Jira admins or higher level admin can create or adjust custom fields on company managed projects.

Project admins don't have these powers and can't be granted them.

See documentation on custom fields: configure-issue-custom-fields
