Hello, 

I have a question as in the topic. How can I assign the default value for the "status" field definition? I'm trying to match the proper syntax, but I would be greatful if you could help. 

I have four statuses as shown on the screen, and the default one should be "REVIEW".

Hi,
you can use IFTTT for that, using the constant names of the statuses, as described on:

https://wiki.vertuna.com/spaces/CONFIFORMS/pages/21234018/ConfiForms+Field+Types

for example, to change the status to orange every time you create a new entry an empty status:

<ac:structured-macro ac:macro-id="68fdcda0-cbfb-4a7e-85b5-41bf704b8448" ac:name="confiform-ifttt" ac:schema-version="1">
<ac:parameter ac:name="condition">Status:[empty]</ac:parameter>
<ac:parameter ac:name="action">Create ConfiForms Entry</ac:parameter>
<ac:parameter ac:name="event">onCreated</ac:parameter>
<ac:parameter ac:name="title">entryId=[entry.id]&amp;Status=moved</ac:parameter>
<ac:rich-text-body>
</ac:rich-text-body>
</ac:structured-macro>

Hi @Andrzej 

The Status field is a system field that mirrors the workflow status of an issue.

While you can't set a default value for this field directly, you can give a try with your desired default status of "REVIEW" by configuring the associated workflow and leveraging Jira automation or scripting tools to streamline the process.

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards
