Rename the Severity custom field in Jira Ops or reuse the same across different Jira Ops projects

[Deleted user]

Contex:

Every time I create a new Jira Ops project I see that a new Severity custom field is created.

{

• id: "customfield_11832",
• key: "customfield_11832",
• name: "Severity",
• custom: true,
• orderable: true,
• navigable: true,
• searchable: true,
• clauseNames: [
  • "cf[11832]",
  • "Severity"
  ],
• schema: {
  • type: "option",
  • custom: "com.atlassian.jira.jira-incident-management-plugin:incident-severity",
  • customId: 11832
  }

}

Now I've three Jira Ops projects and three different Severity with the same name.

Questions:

1) Is it possible to rename these fields? So I can somehow identify them?

2) Is it possible to use the same field across different Jira Ops projects instead of creating a new one each time?

Thanks

Hi Francesco,

First thanks for adopting and trying out the Early access Jira Ops Projects, and to address the direct question for renaming the fields, unfortunatly there is not any option for renaming system fields and this is something that is consistent across all system field values created by default across the platform, Also this is something we are not currently considering as an a new feature in the foreseeable future as covered in the following feature requests:

• https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-21293
• https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-21293

But we also need to take a quick step back and address some additional concerns for the Jira Ops projects, We just announced this at Summit and we released the following community post going over the details but the Jira Ops early access program officially concludes today, and the product will be closed for access on May 15th:

• https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Ops-articles/Concluding-the-Jira-Ops-early-access-program/ba-p/1048857

Please check out the details and leave any questions you have about the migration process.

Regards,
Earl
