Add a new Jira project field

[Emanuel Jianu]

Hi all,

Anyone succeeded in accomplishing the following without using any Jira add-ons?

1. Add a new project field (attribute), similar to Key or Description?

2. Make the project Description a mandatory field at project creation?

Thank you all!

Hi @Emanuel Jianu,

Unfortunately, I have not found any documentation regarding the customisation of the project creation process. I found an add-on that seems to adhere to your requirements however. 

Hope this helps

The only way to do it without add-ons is to hack the core of Jira, effectively implementing what an add-on would do in the core.

An add-on is easier, faster and safer than that, plus it leaves you supported if something goes wrong (Atlassian don't technically support add-ons, but if you have a problem, you can temporarily remove add-ons to put it back in a supported state)
