Jira issue name to Git branch name

[heftygns]

I would like to clarify whether it is possible to add an action icon for copying task information in a specific format right after the breadcrumbs or in the Watch and more actions area. Now I have developed a chrome extension for this, but I would like to simplify it to the Jira plugin.

Link to extension for more context:

Hi @heftygns , I've also wanted a way to copy issue information (e.g. issue id, issue summary, issue type, issue assignee, etc.) to my clipboard with the click of a button.

I created a Jira Cloud app that allows you to copy a Jira Issue key and title to your clipboard by clicking a button that appears on the issue view. The app also allows you to define a custom template so you can add more Issue data and personalize the copied text (including optionally enabling/disabling an embedded link back to the Issue).

Here's a screenshot showing how the app renders on an Issue view. In this case there are two custom buttons that run templates you can define to determine the copied text:

For your use case, you could define the `Copy Branch Name` custom button to format the copied text exactly how you want for a git commit (e.g. by disabling the embedded link back to the issue, adding the issue type, etc).

The app is called Copy Issue Link and you can find it here: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/1225783

Hello @heftygns

Thank you for reaching out.

Indeed, I believe your requirement can be easily achieved with a Jira Cloud plugin. although I must confess I'm just an amateur when talking about plugin development.

I just would like to point out that we have a separate forum dedicated to plugin development questions where you might have more insights about your question. Please take a look at the link below:
