It is possible to make a custom field required for an specific role of a Jira project

[JC Aguilar]

Hi Everyone

I'm using Jira 7.2.4, Currently I need to configure (if it is possible) that a custom field will be required only for a specific role from a Jira project, this field is used only on an issue type. I know that it is possible to make fields required on workflow transitions. Any suggestion that could help me to solve this?

Thanks in advance.

You can not do it out of the box. But you can do it with an add-on like Power Scripts or ScriptRunner.

In Power Scripts you could use Power Scripts Live Fields or a validator. You can find an example of Live Fields here:

You can find an example of a validator here:

Scriptrunner is basically the same you can also use ScriptRunner behaviours or a validator.
