Adding a Key-Value field
JIRA applications let you add custom fields in addition to the built-in fields. You can add a Key-Value custom field the same way as any other custom field in JIRA:
- Choose > Issues.
- Select Fields > Custom Fields.
- Select Add Custom Field. Select All to make sure you can see all available field types.
- Locate and select the "[ISJP] Key-Value Custom Field" field and click Next:
- Enter your Key-Value's name and description. The Field Name will appear as the custom field's title in both entering and retrieving information on issues, whereas the Field Description is displayed beneath the data entry field when entering new issues and editing existing issues, but not when browsing issues.
- Select Create.
- Associate the field to the appropriate screens. You must associate a field to a screen before it will be displayed.
- Select Submit to finish adding your new Key-Value custom field.
