Is there a way to configure different colors for values in a Select List custom field?

Is there a way to configure different colors for values in a Select List custom field?

I have a Select List (single choice) custom field that acts an indicator for RAG Status. I would like to configure the choices to be different colors. Is there a way to do this in Jira Software Cloud?

Can you add emojis as a select list value on Jira Cloud? https://getemoji.com/

Something like...

🟩 OK
🟨 Warning
🟥 Danger

Hi Jack - It's unclear to me how you were able to get the color boxes below. Can you help to further clarify.

Look for the desired emoji at https://getemoji.com/, then copy & paste as it was regular text.
