A small button with a big impact. Creating and editing custom fields in Jira involves complicated and hidden settings. Our Create Wizard does 90% of the work for you and guides you through the creation and configuration process. We've gone through the settings for you and provide guidance whenever needed so that you can easily and intuitively create, use and populate your custom fields.ss
We call it the heart of our application: The Custom Field Table. A simple overview with all relevant information immediately visible.
In the table you will find information about the usage, the assigned screens and contexts, and above all, you can make all content and settings directly via the action menu. Without having to fight your way through the complicated and opaque administration of Jira.
Good news! By now you can use awesome custom fields in team-managed projects.
Go to Project settings > Issue types and search for the field of interest.
Please note, that the awesome custom fields have to be created by an administrator first
Quick Start Guide
Our Goal is to enhance the overall experience for Jira Users by improving visibility, look and feel of Jira Issues with easy to use and configure Custom Fields. We continously improve the app by adding new Field types that help you improve productivity by usability.
Creating a custom field with ACF for Jira is intuitive. Not as old fashioned as the Jira Administration (which is of course also available).
With our creation wizard there is no hazzle with Jira's Admin configuration. It's easy and intuitive.
Open the App-Dashboard by navigating on the admin view of Jira and clicking the "Awesome Custom Fields" Button on the left.
Hit "Create new custom field" In the upper right corner to start our Creation Wizard.
- Select the custom field type you want to create. Hit next.
- Second step: Give your Custom Field a name and a description. Hit next.
- Third step (optional, depending on selected field type in first step): Define preset-values for your newly created custom field. You are able to change or add these later.
- Assign the available Screens you want the custom field to be displayed in.
Last Step: Hit Save to create your new custom field.
in addition to the simplified configuration and customization of custom fields of this app, it is still possible to configure the settings via the conventional way of Jira administration. We hereby offer a simplified and improved way to use and configure custom fields.
Edit existing custom fields
Use the action menu in the dashboard table to edit and configure your custom field exactly the way you want
Adding default values to Awesome Custom Fields
Jira theoretically offers the possibility to configure so-called default values for each field. Unfortunately, the format in the Jira administration is limited to "JSON" and thus virtually unusable.
For ACF, we create the possibility to configure these default values for each field created via our app with an easy-to-use interface.
The option to set the Default Values is located in the Actions menu of the Admin table.
The Default Value required by Jira has an ancient implementation, which causes the Default Values of our app to cause an error message in the Field Settings. We cannot prevent this from happening.
