where to find jira issue severity

[dhandapani]

How do i know the issue severity from jira_issue table.

I have searched in Jira issue table, but it seems to be a custom field. any one share me the info to get this?

Hello, 

By default Jira doesn't have a severity field, it uses priority.

You can add severity as a custom filed, type drop-down single select.

Shall I use the priority values 1,2,3,4,5 as severity? which is available in the priority column in  jira_issue table ?

You can use whatever suits you. It's a custom field, use something everyone will understand.

For example

S1 - Critical

S2 - Major

S3 - Moderate

S4 - Low

OR 

Sev 0

Sev 1

Sev 2
