How can we get a field for the records ( rows) numbers in JIRA?
This would be utterly useless to you, as the number would have to change in almost every report you would run.
If you mean you want a numeric id for an issue, you can get one - the issue id in the database is numeric and unique, but it is sorted in creation order, can't be searched for, not sequential, and would not let you link to it.
Where do you want to see a "row number", and of what use would it be?
Hi @Kamal H_ SAGER
Can you elaborate more please what the exact field you need ?

Thank you Mohamed for the reply, simply I need a field with integer data type that represents the record ( i.e. row) number for each issue key. I am working on doing two level of ranking associated with issue key hence I need that field in the exported JIRA data.
You can create an integer custom field where you can fill it with the Issue ID, using the following smart value :{{issue.id}} on Issue Create Trigger
I hope this can fix your problem
The field should be like index number for the issues (1,2,3,4….etc) not the issue Id itself!
Thank you Nic, I did fix this issue by using Tableau Prep, this field will be used as a numerical rank.
So your Tableau reports are now wrong?
No, they are not wrong but I did add this row number to the JIRA database in Tableau Prep, all the reports now working and fully automated.
