Field 'CustomFieldId' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it.

Hi Guys,

I tried to search for issues containing a custom field named " Audience" in my project "Service Desk Rim" but I have received this error message : Field 'CustomFieldId' does not exist or you do not have permission to view it.

I am a jira administrator and I am sure I typed the right custom field ID.

What might be the problem?

Thanks a lot ^^

Hi Rim,

Your syntax is wrong there. Why don't you just use Audience? There is no need to do custom field there, nor do I think it will work in JQL.

Hi John,

I used the custom field ID because I have two custom fields that have the same name and I want to migrate the data from one field to another.. there is no other way to differentiate between them.. If you could provide an alternative for this JQL I would be extremely grateful!

thank you very much!

Yes, change the name of one of them. Just add a dot or 2 or something like that after the name.
